The salary range offered along with the role of Director of Indigenous Relations at an Ontario university is drawing attention after it was discovered to be lower than comparable job listings at the institution.

After noticing the difference in salary ranges, Thom said he reached out to the university via Facebook. But, after receiving one response, the university stopped responding.

In response to Thom’s post, one user called the salary “inappropriate,” with another calling the move “pretty blatant.” When reached for comment, Jean Becker, the associate vice-president of the Indigenous Relations department, said the university is committed to its mandate of indigenization and decolonization, and that the listing was designed and created by the school’s Indigenous Relations department.

Ontario university accused of offering low salary for Indigenous Director openingThe salary range offered along with the role of Director of Indigenous Relations at an Ontario university is drawing attention after it was discovered to be lower than comparable job listings at the institution. Tax free tho, no? Probably not as important They make up 5% of the population and like .3% in Waterloo. Clearly not as busy as other departments or even as important
