Our Humber business cards have changed to reflect a brighter identity through our WE ARE HUMBER brand. Your current Humber logo business cards should continue to be used until none remain. All new business card orders, however, will be printed using the new look as shown below.
To improve service, a more user-friendly order form has been created for you to submit your business card orders. You can find the form on the Purchasing Services & Sustainability website at humber.ca/purchasing/forms.
Please note that the business card order process remains the same:
- Complete the form with FOAP
- Send it to the printer (Grenville)
- You will then receive the cards via interoffice mail
The on-campus print shop can help track your orders or answer questions regarding the printing details. Contact them at 416.675.6622 ext. 4228 or humber.north@grenville.com or humberbusinesscards@grenville.com.
If you have any questions regarding the business card process, please contact Jessica Powell at 416.675.6622 ext. 5172, jessica.powell@humber.ca.

Reminder: Developing Individual Workplace Emergency Response Plans
Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (2005)
In compliance with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (2005), Humber College continues to promote a barrier-free learning, working and living environment. Under the AODA (2005), Humber College is required to provide individualized workplace emergency response plans for employees who have a disability. The purpose of this information is to outline how an employee with a disability, if they require it, will be provided with assistance in the event of an emergency. An emergency can range from an acute event that requires medical attention to an event such as a fire where special evacuation procedures may be necessary.
How to Develop an Individual Workplace Emergency Response Plan
Managers are responsible for working with employees and work-study students with disabilities to develop an individualized workplace emergency response plan. Humber has developed a Workplace Emergency Response Information template to assist managers, employees and work-study students to create this plan.
What do Managers need to do?
- If you are aware that an employee with a disability will require assistance in the event of an emergency, contact the AODA Coordinator by email at stephanie.latty@humber.ca or by phone at 416.675.6622 ext. 5647 to access the Workplace Emergency Response Information Template.
- In consultation with the employee, use the Workplace Emergency Response Information template to determine the employee’s needs in the event of an emergency, and assist in the development of the employee’s workplace emergency information plan. If you have any questions or need assistance completing the template, contact the AODA Coordinator.
- Once the employee’s emergency information has been developed, a signed copy of this information must be provided to the employee, the Manager and HR Services for the employee’s personnel file.
Thank you for increasing accessibility at Humber
If you have questions about the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (2005) or the Individualized Workplace Emergency Response Information template, please contact Stephanie Latty, AODA Coordinator at stephanie.latty@humber.ca or 416.675.6622 ext. 5647.
This document is available in an alternate format upon request.

On Friday, November 22, 2013, we learned the terribly sad news that Dawn Bryan, a long service staff member at Humber, had passed away.
Dawn started working at Humber in 1985, retiring in 2011. During her time at Humber, Dawn worked tirelessy to support students in a variety of areas, including The Business School and Counselling and Disability Services. At the time of retirement, Dawn was working as a Disability Services Officer and helped countless students navigate the college environment. Her commitment to student success was felt daily by her colleagues, and most importantly, by the students themselves.
If you wish to join the Humber community today to honour Dawn, please find the details regarding service arrangements here.
Our thoughts go out to her friends and family during this most difficult time.
Regards,
Jen McMillen

The Purchasing Department is giving away their time stamp clock. The machine is from SimplexGrinnell and is still in good working condition. The clock was replaced because the ribbon does not produce enough ink for stamping important documents (where the information must be clear and concise).
If anyone is interested please email the purchasing team at purchasing@humber.ca.
Please Note: This offer is for Humber Employees only.
Thanks!
