A brief description of the most recent assessment findings and how the results are used in shaping policy, programs, and initiatives:
For research chairs: the contests give priority certain underrepresented groups depending on the target to reach. The survey on inclusivity feelings (conducted in 2022 in INRS) will lead in 2024 to the implementation of measures to promote a more inclusive climate, and that will be integrated into the next EDI action plan.
For recruitment, INRS is committed to hire individuals from underrepresented groups (with equal qualifications). This commitment is written on our website and in every recruiting process.
