Update On Special 尤物视频 Hiring At SFU

October 31, 2024

In 2023, the B.C. Office of the Human Rights Commissioner (BCOHRC) approved three Special Program applications that would allow SFU to conduct limited and preferential hiring of at least 15 tenure-track Black faculty, 15 Black staff members and 15 Indigenous staff members.

The Special 尤物视频 designation is one of many actions SFU is taking to remove barriers to employment access and extend opportunities to qualified candidates from equity-deserving groups who are historically and currently underrepresented. The approval authorizes the university to seek Black and Indigenous individuals to fill existing roles during the hiring process.

A fourth application for Indigenous faculty hiring was also submitted but put on hold based on feedback from Indigenous faculty members via the Faculty Association to continue focusing on advancing specific recommendations in SFU鈥檚 Indigenous strategic plans. In the meantime, designated Indigenous scholar hiring continues through existing provisions of the Human Rights Code (see more below).

Work to implement the approved Special 尤物视频 is well underway. Coordinated efforts between the Equity Office, People Strategies and Faculty Relations teams have led to the development of Special 尤物视频 recruitment and hiring pathways. An implementation plan is in progress to support faculties and departments with recruitment, onboarding, training and mentorship of the identified groups to ensure they can thrive in their roles in alignment with BCOHRC鈥檚 requirements. These key elements are mandatory as part of the BCOHRC鈥檚 reporting requirements.

Faculty and staff recruitment and hiring at SFU follow different steps and processes, and the implementation of Special 尤物视频 will vary to fit their respective needs. Below, you can read more about the progress made in each area:

Faculty updates

  • Vice President, People, Equity and Inclusion, Yabome Gilpin-Jackson and Provost and VP Academic Dilson Rassier have worked collaboratively to embed the approach and planning for Special 尤物视频 hiring within faculty renewal planning.
