The ROI of Belonging at Work: McLean & Company Research Reveals Why HR Must Build a Culture Where Employees Feel Seen, Heard, and Connected
What does it take to truly thrive as an organization? In an era marked by growing loneliness, disconnection, and change, new research from global HR advisory firm McLean & Company identifies belonging as a critical driver of individual, team, and organizational success. The report highlights how organizations should harness the power of belonging by weaving opportunities for connection, recognition, and empowerment across the employee experience. TORONTO, July 15, 2025 /CNW/ - As loneliness continues to rise across the workforce, the need to feel a sense of belonging has become central to how people experience and thrive at work. New research from McLean & Company reveals that the ability to foster authentic connection directly correlates with critical business outcomes. Despite this, the firm's insights show that belonging remains one of the most overlooked and underinvested areas in HR. In an era defined by uncertainty and a growing epidemic of loneliness, McLean & Company's research calls on organizations to shift their perspective to recognize belonging as a core ingredient in building strong, adaptable, and successful organizations. The recently published research, Unlocking Belonging in the Workplace, identifies belonging as a powerful and dynamic force rooted in how individuals feel seen, heard, and connected at work. Key findings from McLean & Company's research include: Employees who feel comfortable being themselves at work are 5.7x more likely to be engaged and 70% more likely to stay with their organization (McLean & Company Engagement Survey, 2021-2024). Employees who feel their contributions are important are 3.5x more likely to handle stress effectively (McLean & Company Engagement Survey, 2021-2024). Teams reporting their organization is increasing investment into employee belonging are 54% more likely to highly rate their organization's revenue growth (McLean & Company HR Trends Survey, 2025). Yet, despite its impact, only 31% of HR leaders report increasing investment in belonging-related initiatives (McLean & Company HR Trends Survey, 2025). McLean & Company's research insights underscore that belonging is not a passive outcome – it must be deliberately designed and consistently sustained. In hybrid and distributed environments especially, the opportunity to connect meaningfully doesn't happen by chance. The firm's insights provide guidance on how organizations can create connections by embedding belonging into the core of talent practices, from hiring and performance management to learning and development and employee listening. "Belonging is a unifying force in a divided and disconnected world. It's about creating the conditions for people to connect and contribute meaningfully, be more resilient through complexity, and thrive together," says Elysca Fernandes, director, Human Resources and Advisory Services at McLean & Company. "It has the potential to transform our individual and collective experiences, expanding our horizons to achieve better outcomes both now and in the future." The World Health Organization and U.S. Surgeon General have both flagged loneliness as a public health concern, which underscores the importance of strengthening connection and community at work – and employers can play an essential role. McLean & Company's research pushes beyond definitions to explore the nuances of what belonging truly means in today's workplaces and acknowledges that belonging is deeply personal, shaped by cultural background, employment type, lived experience, and even trauma. The firm reports that for some, belonging may be rooted in team relationships; for others, it's found in meaningful work, aligned values, or flexibility and autonomy. This variability makes a one-size-fits-all approach ineffective and highlights the importance of listening for what drives belonging at all levels. McLean & Company offers a research-backed, actionable framework to optimize employees' sense of belonging, from listening to building belonging skills, to create an intentional, adaptable, and future-ready organization. McLean & Company's Unlocking Belonging in the Workplace research is now available to its members and includes reflection tools, implementation guidance, and advisory support to help HR and organizational leaders move from awareness to action. The firm's wellbeing-focused offerings, including workplace wellness surveys, employee focus groups, and wellbeing workshops, explore belonging as a key driver of organizational health.

About McLean & Company McLean & Company pairs evidence-based research and immediately applicable tools with deep HR expertise to position organizations to meet today's needs and prepare for the future. The global HR research and advisory firm's member organizations enjoy comprehensive resources, full-service diagnostics, workshops, action plans, and advisory services for all levels of HR professionals, from executive leadership to HR leaders to HR team members, that help shape workplaces where everyone thrives.

Toronto and GTA Flash Flood Anniversary Underscores Urgency of Severe Weather Preparedness
TORONTO, July 15, 2025 /CNW/ - On July 16, 2024, residents in Toronto and across the GTA faced devastating flash flooding that led to prolonged power outages and nearly $1 billion in insured damage to personal property, including homes, businesses and vehicles. The massive flood contributed to the more than $9 billion in insured losses recorded in 2024 – the most destructive year for insured losses in Canadian history. The speed and intensity of the floods serve as a stark reminder of nature's destructive power – and the critical need to mitigate risk before disaster strikes. "Insurers were there for their customers – and always will be – but this event reminds us all of the importance of being prepared for the worst," said Amanda Dean, Vice-President, Ontario and Atlantic, Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC). "Flash floods, like wildfires, can often occur with little to no warning. Taking proactive steps to prepare for a severe weather event is not only important for your personal safety, but for your financial security. IBC wants to ensure residents across Ontario are fully prepared for the potential hazards posed by extreme weather events this summer." IBC's top 10 tips to help protect your property from flood risks and water damage: Make sure downspouts are clear of debris and that they direct water away from your home to help prevent basement water damage. Keep the floor drains inside your home and the storm sewer grates on your street clear of obstructions. Consider installing a backwater valve, after consulting with a professional to assess your home's location & eligibility. Move valuable items out of your basement to higher levels in your home. If you have a sump pump, ensure that it is working properly and has a backup power source. Have someone check your property regularly if you are away from home for an extended period. If you need to drive during or after a storm, drive according to the conditions and do not drive on flooded roads. Ensure proper lot grading. Consult with a landscaping professional about building up the ground around your house so that water will drain away from basement walls. Consider using rain barrels to help hold and manage excess rainwater around the property. During periods of heavy rainfall, limit water use in your home (this includes limiting use of appliances such as dishwashers and laundry machines). If flooding is imminent, shut off electricity to the areas of your home that may be affected. Use sandbags, or install flood shields or built-up barriers, to stop water from entering through basement windows and doors. Consider raising large appliances, such as the furnace and the hot water heater, off the basement floor on wood or cement blocks. This should be done by professionals well in advance of potential flooding. If a flood is imminent, consider anchoring these appliances and protecting them with a floodwall or shield. Every policy is different. Know what your insurance covers. Overland flood coverage is optional and typically covers specific types of water damage, such as damage resulting from the overflow of lakes, ponds or rivers; surface water from heavy rainfall or melting snow; and groundwater or the rising of the water table, causing water to enter a home at the ground level or by seeping through windows, doors and walls. Homeowners are encouraged to reach out to their insurance representative with any questions about their policy. Damage to vehicles from wind or water may be covered if you purchased the optional coverage (comprehensive and/or collision) as part of your policy. Check with your insurance representative to see what coverage you have. Water damage in a basement due to a sewer backup is only covered if you have purchased specific optional sewer backup coverage. Subject to any applicable exclusions, the contents of your refrigerator and freezer may be covered for damage related to food spoilage caused by an accidental power interruption. In this situation, your fridge, freezer and their contents may be insured for a specified amount. Check your policy. In certain circumstances, homeowners who are unable to stay in their homes because of insured damage may be entitled to additional living expenses. Check with your insurance representative to find out what your policy covers. "Severe weather is getting worse and while there are steps consumers can take to help mitigate risk and damage, governments also have a major role to play to protect Canadians. This includes no longer building unprotected homes and businesses in high-risk flood and wildfire zones, enhancing flood defences in communities at high risk of flood, helping homeowners understand their risks, subsidizing home retrofits to help homeowners reduce their exposure to floods and wildfires, and investing in improved emergency preparedness, response and recovery capacity," added Dean. Infrastructure improvements can also play a role in tackling risk, e.g. bridge and sewer enlargements mostly undertaken by municipalities. In addition, Ontario's conservation authorities (CA) provide vital weather and flood forecasting warnings. Visit the Flood Forecasting and Warning Program website for information from local CAs. Consumers with general questions about insurance are encouraged to reach out to IBC's Consumer Information Centre at 1-844-2ask-IBC (1-844-227-5422) or [email protected].

Building 1,285 new homes in Toronto Français
TORONTO, July 15, 2025 /CNW/ - Solving Canada's housing crisis requires immediate action to bring down costs. To provide Canadians with increased access to affordable and sustainable housing, the government is supporting the construction of 1,285 new rental homes with an investment of over $650 million through the Apartment Construction Loan Program (ACLP). The announcement was made by Michael Coteau, Member of Parliament for Scarborough-Woburn, on behalf of the Honourable Gregor Roberston, Minister of Housing and Infrastructure and Minister responsible for Pacific Economic Development Canada, alongside Michael Thompson, Councillor for Scarborough Centre. The 1,285 rental units will be comprised of three 45, 35, and 41-storey residential towers, located at 25 Borough Drive, and will be developed by Oxford Properties Group, the global real estate arm of OMERS. The development will feature residential and retail space and will offer a broad unit mix of 51 studios, 693 one-bedrooms, 411 two-bedrooms and 130 three-bedroom units, including 23 townhomes for people from various economic backgrounds, age demographics, and family structures. The site is located close to Scarborough Town Centre Shopping mall and will be near Scarborough Centre TTC station, which include GO Transit, and the future Scarborough Subway Expansion. As we build a strong Canadian housing sector, purposeful collaboration will be essential. That means working hand-in-hand with our partners to bring down costs and build homes at a scale and speed not seen since the Second World War. Quotes: "Our government is committed to driving housing supply to bring down costs. This project will create more rental homes for people living and working in Scarborough and is an example of what's possible when we work together in partnership with the private sector. This is another step forward in our bold, ambitious plan to build Canada strong." – The Honourable Gregor Robertson, Minister of Housing and Infrastructure and Minister responsible for Pacific Economic Development Canada "We are building more affordable homes to address the housing crisis. The project at 25 Borough Drive will create 1,285 new homes for Torontonians, including studios, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments and townhomes. The City of Toronto is proud to support this project through the Rental Housing Supply Program. We are stronger together, working with the Government of Canada to create more affordable homes in Scarborough to meet the needs of our growing city."" – Olivia Chow, Mayor of Toronto "Oxford is a high-conviction investor in the living sector, and we're proud to leverage our strong development expertise in Canada to help address our nation's housing crisis. The ACLP loan allows us to accelerate our plan to intensify the lands at our Brimley site to deliver much-needed housing solutions in Scarborough. Our partnership with CMHC is a tremendous example of how a public-private solution can drive transformative, meaningful impact for communities." – Daniel Fournier, Executive Chair at Oxford Properties Quick Facts: The National Housing Strategy (NHS) is a 10+ year, $115+ billion plan to give more Canadians a place to call home. Progress on programs and initiatives are updated quarterly on the Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada (HICC) website. The Housing and Infrastructure Project Map shows affordable housing projects that have been developed. As of March 2025, the federal government has committed $65.84 billion to support the creation of over 166,000 units and the repair of over 322,000 units. These measures prioritize those in greatest need, including seniors, Indigenous Peoples, people experiencing or at risk of homelessness, and women and children fleeing violence NHS is built on strong partnerships between the federal, provincial, and territorial governments, and continuous engagement with others, including municipalities, Indigenous governments and organizations, and the social and private housing sectors. This includes consultations with Canadians from all walks of life, and people with lived experience of housing need. All NHS investments delivered by the federal, provincial, and territorial governments will respect the key principles of NHS that support partnerships, people, and communities The $55 billion Apartment Loan Construction Program (ACLP) is providing low-cost financing to support more than 131,000 new rental homes across Canada by 2031 – 2032. The ACLP provides fully repayable low-interest loans to encourage the construction of more rentals for middle-class Canadians. It creates a positive impact to the housing system at minimal cost to taxpayers. A stable supply of purpose-built rental housing is essential for more people in Canada to have access to housing that meets their needs. As of March 2025, CMHC has committed $23.35 billion in loans through ACLP to support the creation of more than 59,000 rental homes. It is one of many programs and initiatives under the National Housing Strategy designed to help address housing needs across the housing continuum. It complements other NHS initiatives that focus on funding affordable housing units for lower-income households. Budget 2024 announced enhancements to the ACLP which includes the program being extended from 2027 – 2028 to 2031 – 2032. The enhancements will allow applicants to apply for funding for on- and off-campus student housing to support post-secondary educational institutions as well as independent seniors housing. There are no longer minimum requirements relating to energy efficiency and accessibility, instead applicants will benefit from making stronger commitments to desired rental supply and social outcomes. Funding provided for 25 Borough Drive is as follows: $650 million in fully repayable loans from the federal government, through the Apartment Construction Loan Program $2.5 million from City of Toronto's Rental Housing Supply Program Additional Information: Visit for the most-requested Government of Canada housing information. CMHC plays a critical role as a national facilitator to promote stability and sustainability in Canada's housing finance system. Our mortgage insurance products support access to homeownership and the creation and maintenance of rental supply.
