Living our values with our refreshed Values and Ethics Code
June 15, 2023
Dear colleagues,
As Parks Canada team members, we each play a role in promoting a safe, healthy, and respectful workplace. How we treat each other and the people we serve defines who we are as an organization.
I am pleased to share with you today our refreshed Values and Ethics Code: “Living our Values”. This Code presents the five core values which will guide and help us become the diverse, inclusive, and welcoming Agency we aspire to be. The five core values are:
- Respect for people
- Engagement
- Excellence
- Integrity
- Equity, diversity, and inclusion
I am grateful to the working group and so many other Parks Canada team members from different regions and functions, including the union, who worked together to support the
development of this refreshed Code. It presents values that reflect our Agency’s unique identity and culture as well as our shared commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion, and reconciliation in all areas of our work.
I encourage you to use this Code to have conversations with your colleagues about expected behaviours and actions. Be sure to read what each core value means and to reflect upon how you can exemplify them in your daily activities and interactions. Watch the “Living our Values” video to learn more about the Code and the five core values.
Should you have any questions regarding the Values and Ethics Code or about conflict of interest, please contact the Values and Ethics, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Branch at valeursetethiques-valuesethics@pc.gc.ca.
Together, let’s contribute to a more respectful, inclusive, and diverse workplace.
Ron Hallman
President & CEO
