The launch of The Mosaic Company’s Employee Inclusion Networks (EINs) last month means the company will be a more inclusive place to work for all its team members.

From January 30 through February 2, Mosaic hosted engaging virtual and in-person events around the world to celebrate all its employees' diversity and uniqueness which makes the company stronger.

“Employee Inclusion Networks are voluntary, employee-led and leader-sponsored groups, that through advocacy and allyship help foster a diverse and inclusive workplace where all employees can thrive,” said Mosaic’s Lisa Poissant, Vice President of Human Resources, North America & Global Talent Acquisition and EIN Lead. 

The six Employee Inclusions Networks are:

• Pride
• Generations
• Women
• Veterans
• Race & Heritage
• Diverse Abilities

In Canada, Mosaic has committed to increasing Indigenous representation within the company to at least 15 percent by 2025 across three core areas: Community Investment, workforce new hires and procurement.

During EIN launch week, Mosaic hosted featured events and activities presented by each network, including live broadcasts from Florida and Sao Paolo, Brazil. Watch parties were held across Mosaic’s facilities in Saskatchewan, bringing together employees to learn and celebrate.  

American astronomer and Planetary Protection Engineer, Dr. Moogega Cooper, was joined by Mosaic’s CEO and President, Joc O’Rourke for a keynote presentation. Dr. Cooper shared her perspective on the power of diversity in teams, being an ally and inclusive leadership.

The Pride Network hosted two sessions with guest speakers, Rene Cantu from Equity Florida and JP Polo, DE&I Consultant and Professor based in Brazil, who presented on LGBTQIA+ literacy. The Race & Heritage and Generations Networks hosted in-person discussions with their colleagues using thought-provoking videos. The Women’s Network brought together two panels of leaders from across Mosaic to share their personal stories that have defined their careers.

Disability public speaker and advocate, Catarina Rivera, headlined the Diverse Abilities event, highlighting accessibility and inclusion in the workplace. Employees also shared their experiences with diverse abilities inside and outside the workplace. The Veteran’s Network hosted a panel discussion that included the voices of veterans, military spouses, and families of the fallen.

“Thank you to our Network Leads and to all those employees who organized and hosted events across the company – their efforts play an important role in making progress towards our 2030 Diversity and Inclusion Commitments,” said Poissant. “Together, we are taking steps to build a diverse and inclusive workforce that makes Mosaic stronger and better enables us to fulfill our mission: to help the world grow the food it needs.”
