Tier 2 Canada Research Chair in Workplace Social Justice

Lakehead University invites applications for a Tier 2 Canada Research Chair in Workplace Social Justice.  The ideal candidate is one who can contribute to our understanding of equity, diversity, and inclusion in the face of global socioeconomic disparities; helping us to address how principles of fairness and equity are applied in employment contexts, focusing on the distribution of resources, recognition of diverse identities, and participatory decision-making processes. These factors are not only vital for fostering employee satisfaction and well-being but are critical for organizational effectiveness. The growing interest in workplace social justice is reflected in its potential to inform policy and practice that reduces inequities, combats discrimination, and enhances the inclusivity of work settings. Inequities may be individual (health-related (i.e., mental health), race- or gender-based, or based on any aspect of individual identity) or structural (workplace policies or work design). The title of the CRC may be changed to more accurately describe the selected candidate’s proposed area of study.
