The Joint National Equity and Diversity Committee
The Joint National Equity and Diversity Committee
You are invited to count yourself in and fill out the Joint Equity Census Survey to help us create a more diverse and equitable workplace. With only five questions, it takes just a few minutes to complete.
We believe that attracting, developing and retaining people who reflect the diversity of Canada are essential steps to achieve our success because this diversity matters to the customers and communities we serve. Your participation will help provide us with the accurate data we need to achieve this.
Your Equity Census information is confidential. It will not be shared with your coworkers, team leader or management, and is protected by the Employment Equity Act and the Privacy Act.
What you need to know:
• PSAC-represented employees will receive a unique link to the survey in an email from Mercer | Sirota.
• The survey can be completed by mobile device or online. Employees are asked to complete the survey through the online link by June 30. It is confidential and protected by law under Canada’s Employment Equity Act and Privacy Act.
• Employees on a long-term leave of absence will receive their survey at home.
• Note: The definition for “persons with disabilities” has been expanded by Statistics Canada since the last national census; accordingly, you might have a health condition that now qualifies under this category (e.g. chronic conditions and mental health conditions). You will be able to review the new definition as you fill out the Equity Census questionnaire under question 3 Persons with disabilities.
• Completing the survey is voluntary but we encourage all employees to count themselves in to help us build a stronger workplace and stronger Canada for everyone.
