Gender Identity and Business Process Listening Session

The Office of Equity and Inclusion (OEI) invites you to join Training and Case Manager Ever Hanna (they/them) for a discussion about how UMBC can improve business processes, technologies and apps (such as People Soft and G-suite), and overall climate for transgender, gender non-conforming, and non-binary employees.

OEI is in the process of partnering with several offices across campus to continue to increase inclusion of trans, GNC, and non-binary employees. The feedback collected in these sessions will be reported back anonymously to appropriate offices. OEI is especially interested in hearing from directly affected individuals as well as hiring managers and payroll preparers from across campus.  

These sessions are open to any faculty or staff member at UMBC:

Tuesday, February 16th from 2-3 PM

Friday, February 19th from 2-3 PM

Friday, February 26th from 10-11 AM

This session is open only to employee members who identify as trans, gender non-conforming, non-binary, or any other identity that falls outside of the gender binary: 

Thursday, February 18 from 1-2 PM (The guest list for this event will be hidden and the meeting will be locked at 1:15 PM)

OEI will post a list of questions that may be asked during the sessions ahead of time. If you require additional accommodations to be able to access the meeting, please email EverHanna@umbc.edu with your request.

Note: The Office of Equity and Inclusion encourages any individual who has currently or formerly experienced discrimination on the basis of their gender identity or expression to report this discrimination through our online reporting form. Disclosures of discrimination that may occur during these listening sessions will not be considered reports to OEI. 

The session facilitator will take notes, but these sessions will not be recorded.
