Equity at U of T
Through our equity programs, services, and offices, we are working to remove barriers to employment for people who are usually underrepresented in Canada’s workforce – Aboriginal people, people with disabilities, visible minorities, sexual minorities, and women. Our programs also ensure that employees at the University are treated with justice and fairness.
