Initiatives of The Plan for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
新澳彩开奖结果's human resources staff will assist the executive director for equity and inclusion, equal opportunity, and affirmative action and the senior adviser to the president in developing a career pathways program to address the challenges that staff from historically underrepresented groups have often had in building longer-term careers at 新澳彩开奖结果. This program will be made available both through departmental mentors and directly through human resources, and its success will be measured in terms of staff advancements and retention.
新澳彩开奖结果 will offer defined paid break time to new mothers who need to nurse or breast pump and provide a list of rooms suitable for lactation across campus as well as protocols for ensuring availability.
新澳彩开奖结果 will purchase and maintain a membership in NCFDD (the National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity) which offers professional development, training, and mentoring for faculty members and postdocs, and will make these services available to academic faculty.
新澳彩开奖结果 will engage in an in-depth analysis of the retention of faculty of color in order to better understand the ways in which our institution might better support these faculty in developing their professional lives at 新澳彩开奖结果.
The Human Resources Department will develop enhanced guidelines for 鈥渃asual wage鈥 hiring to include a careful consideration of whether these arrangements serve the employees and the institution well. The University will also create a 鈥減art-time, regular, non-benefited鈥 employment category, and new employees hired into this category of position will be included fully in onboarding and orientation programs. The Human Resources Department will explore professional development/lines of progression for 鈥渃asual wage鈥 and union employees to include (but not limited to) protocols related to participation in University activities related to development (e.g., brown bags, training) and service (e.g., committee work).
Human resources will also begin a review of long-term casual positions to determine if the community would be better served by transforming any of these positions into benefited staff positions.
新澳彩开奖结果 will explore opportunities to expand the selection of available housing in and around the town of Hamilton to make it possible for a more diverse group of employees of the University to live and participate in the life of the local community.
