The University of Saskatchewan and the Public Service Alliance of Canada have a joint interest in achieving equity in the workplace so that all employees are treated with dignity and respect and are provided the opportunity to achieve their full potential.

The University of Saskatchewan is committed to achieving and maintaining a fair and representative work force through the design and implementation of an Employment Equity Plan which is consistent with provisions of The Saskatchewan Human Rights Code.

Employment equity is a process designed to improve the representation of systemically disadvantaged groups, especially aboriginal peoples, persons with disabilities, visible minorities and women at the University of Saskatchewan. The University and the Union value diversity recognize the importance of providing opportunities in this bargaining unit for these target groups.
