ANNUAL NATIONAL CONFERENCE
FROM THE DESK OF MCA CANADA
In this day and age where good talent is hard to find and even harder to retain, diversity is key. The need to create an organization that is inclusive and welcoming of people who identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Colour is increasingly important. After all, when companies hire and build such diverse workforces, they inspire workers to be their best, and they create powerful workplace cultures. Created for company leaders and managers, BuildForce Canada’s Introduction to Understanding Systemic Racism e-learning course helps build awareness about systemic racism, and provides information and strategies to help organizations develop and revise policies and processes to create workplaces that are inclusive of – and welcoming to – people of all backgrounds and ethnicities. Key outcomes for learners include:
The Introduction to Understanding Systemic Racism course consists of about three hours of self-paced instruction. Additionally, it has been accredited by the Canadian Construction Association. MCA Canada is an official distributor partner for this and other BuildForce Canada e-learning courses. Contact us to enrol. You can also learn more about the full suite of e-learning courses offered by BuildForce Canada at www.buildforce.ca. MEMBERSHIP OUTLOOK

LEADERSHIP, EDUCATION & TRAINING
 The MCA Canada Jobsite Journal is a daily log to help track projects, including:
• site conditions,
• weather conditions, • productivity/time loss and reasons, • area/work in progress, • subtrade reports, • daily report reminders, • and more. Daily and Weekly Reports track work site conditions, progress and delays which prevent costly claims. The Daily Reports record work site conditions and progress, while the Weekly Reports detail delays and provide space to give a more specific explanation of that week's progress.
For MCA Canada members, this valuable tool is available for only $11.50.
