Canada Research Chair Applicant Self-Identification Survey Example

Diversity and a culture of inclusion is a key pillar of Laurier's Strategic Academic Plan and one of Laurier's core values. We are committed to increasing the diversity of our staff and faculty, including the diversity of our chair-holders, and welcome applications from Indigenous peoples, racialized peoples, persons with disabilities and gender and sexual minorities. To better understand systemic barriers through our recruitment and selection process, and as required by the secretariat of the Canada Research Chair, we encourage you to self-identify if you belong to an equity seeking group(s).

The data collected in this survey will be kept for trending purposes. Personal identifiers, like name, will be deleted after this job posting is filled or closed. If you have any questions regarding the university's commitment to employment equity, its equity plan or this applicant survey, contact the Employment Equity Officer at 519.884.0710 x4469 or equity@wlu.ca.

Note: If you require an accommodation during the recruitment process, please contact the Employment Equity Officer at equity@wlu.ca. No accommodations will be made based on the information gathered in this survey. Should you wish to self-identify, you may do so in all of the categories that apply.
