HUMAN RESOURCES SERVICES STRATEGIC PL AN
2016-2021
It is my privilege to be a member of our
innovative and inclusive McMaster community
which showcases the diverse talents of our
more than 7,800 faculty, research, staff and
student employees.
As we look to advance McMaster’s
standing as a Top 100 University in the world,
and a Top Employer within the Hamilton-
Niagara Region, our Human Resources
Services team continues to be focussed on
creating a recognized workplace which helps
us to retain, attract, develop and inspire our
exceptional group of employees.
To promote an engaged, healthy and
versatile workforce now and in future, HRS
will continue to align our efforts to enable
University priorities, collaborate with our
various community partners to help them
achieve their goals, deliver excellence in
service and solutions, empower learning, as
well as champion opportunities for individuals
to grow their careers at McMaster.
On behalf of our HR team, I am pleased to
share our new HR Strategic Plan with you.
This document will showcase our priority
areas of focus through to 2020, and how we
will demonstrate our ongoing commitment
and value to our University community.
We look forward to partnering with you
as we enhance existing and implement new
programming, services and processes which
will further McMaster’s reputation as a
wonderful place to learn, work and thrive.
