CHICAGO – May 22, 2023 – Addison Group Executive Vice President, Human Resources, Peg Buchenroth is recognized on Staffing Industry Analysts’ (SIA) Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Influencers list for 2023. Peg’s intentional work on assembling and developing an Advisory Board of DEI specialists and implementing an inclusive strategy to advocate for representation and safe spaces for everyone across the company highlights her selection to this year’s list.   

SIA is the industry’s most reliable global research and advisory firm focused on staffing and workforce solutions. SIA’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Influencers list, now in its third year, honors staffing professionals, executives, and leaders working to make workplaces more equitable and inclusive by having crucial conversations and actions around diversity, belonging, fair treatment of workers, equal pay, hiring bias, discrimination, racism, and more. 

Peg’s strategy to support the creation of multiple employee resource groups (ERGs) has improved employee morale, productivity, and innovation. The employee-led, Addison-sponsored ERGs are crucial to providing internal support and social networks around identity that aid in recruitment, retention, strategic guidance, and org-wide collaboration.
