Workplace Connect

Join The Utah LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce and your peers throughout the state in The Workplace Connect Roundtable.  From hiring & retention, to benefits administration, to employee engagement, learn from peers and colleagues how each of you can influence day-to-day processes at your company to effectively weave inclusive behaviors and a sense of belonging within, and, in turn track and show the business case for your work.

The Workplace Connect ERG/DEI roundtable meets quarterly to discuss topics of importance to LGBTQ+ employees and business leaders and to participate in community service projects.  Representatives of companies, universities & colleges and government entities who are considering joining the Utah LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce are welcome to sample a Workplace Connect discussion or volunteer event as our guest.  Ongoing membership in Workplace Connect is reserved for Chamber Members.

Workplace Connect roundtable discussions are held virtually.  Workplace Connect volunteer activities include community giveback events with Project Rainbow Utah & The VOA Youth Resource Center

Next up:  Workplace Connect Community Giveback Day with Project Rainbow Utah May 24th. For registration details, please contact Liz Pitts liz.pitts@utahlgbtqchamber.org
