Please Complete Humber’s Employment Equity Questionnaire

Humber College is committed to principles of equity, diversity and inclusion in the workplace. The Employment Equity Act was passed in 1986. Recognizing that "systemic discrimination" was responsible for most of the inequality found in employment, the Abella Royal Commission on Equality in Employment outlined a systemic response and chose the term "Employment Equity" to describe the process.

To learn more about Humber’s Employment Equity Program (EEP), please visit the Centre website.

The Centre for Human Rights, Equity & Diversity invites all full-time, part-time, contract and sessional employees to complete the Employment Equity Questionnaire (EEQ). The information that you provide in the Employment Equity Questionnaire will be kept confidential and will only be reported in aggregate form for Employment Equity purposes. In other words, the reported data will not contain any personal identification. Having up-to-date knowledge of our workforce representation will allow the College to identify where underrepresentation exists, and to target its efforts toward removing barriers that may exist in the College’s employment systems.

The completion of Humber’s Employment Equity Questionnaire is voluntary.

How can I access the Employment Equity Questionnaire?

  • Hard copies of the Employment Equity Questionnaire are being distributed to employee mailboxes. Please return the completed questionnaire using the included addressed envelope.
  • The Employment Equity Questionnaire (PDF) is also attached to this communique (please see below). The Employment Equity Questionnaire (PDF) can also be accessed on the Centre’s website. Please return the completed questionnaire to The Centre for Human Rights, Equity & Diversity (5th floor LRC North Campus) or you can scan the completed questionnaire and email to Bharat Saini, Advisor, Human Rights, Equity & Diversity, at bharat.saini@humber.ca.

If you require the Employment Equity Questionnaire in an accessible format, please contact Bharat Saini at 416.665.6622 x5160 or bharat.saini@humber.ca.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please visit the Centre website for Frequently Asked Questions pertaining to the Employment Equity Program and Humber's Employment Equity Questionnaire.

The Centre for Human Rights, Equity & Diversity thanks you for helping to build a more inclusive Humber.
