Employee Resource Groups

The 11 Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) at BMO are voluntary, employee-led groups to help foster an inclusive workplace by bringing together people with similar interests, values, or affinities. These groups empower our employees to learn from difference, and they’re also an example of the standards of inclusion we present to our customers, communities and stakeholders. ERGs support the recruitment, engagement and retention of employees from a variety of self-identifying communities.

How do ERGs make a difference?

ERGs are critical in helping us build engagement internally, connect with our communities externally and drive our enterprise priorities forward. They are sources of invaluable insight into the needs of our diverse groups and provide counsel that informs the direction of many important programs and initiatives. And most importantly, they advocate for employees, creating safe spaces where everyone can feel comfortable speaking up and being themselves.

BMO’s ERGs include:

  • BMO Alliance for Women
  • BMO Asian Coalition of Employees
  • BMO Black Professionals Network
