Inclusive Workplace 

At Grainger, we believe our differences make us extraordinary.

We are committed to fair, unbiased treatment in the workplace so that we continue to strengthen our culture, ensuring all our team members, customers and business partners feel valued and respected. We believe that the collective sum of our individual differences makes our business stronger, our teams more innovative and makes Grainger a great place to work. That’s why we’re committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where all team members can feel safe, valued and encouraged to voice their opinions.

We recognize and respect the inherent dignity and equal rights of all individuals, regardless of race, color, gender, religion, national origin, ethnicity, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other protected characteristic under applicable Canadian human rights and employment legislation. This includes providing reasonable accommodations to individuals with disabilities throughout our hiring process as well as throughout the course of employment. Each candidate’s access needs vary, and what is accessible for one candidate may not be accessible for all. If you need assistance or an accommodation, please inform your recruiter to discuss your needs.
