Peel paramedic culture

We’re building a workplace that celebrates diversity, honours equity, and is inclusive of all employees and communities we serve.

Peel is one of the most diverse communities in Canada accounting for 18% of Ontario’s immigrant population, and where 69% of residents identify with a ‘racialized’ group. As a health care provider, we recognize that Black individuals in Canada may face higher risks related to certain health outcomes.

Honouring and celebrating diversity

In February 2024, we celebrated Black History Month by inviting a sample of Black employees across PRPS to share some of their unique contributions to their work based on their diverse insights. The richness of experience that our diverse workforce brings to this organization positions us to best serve our communities in Peel.
