    UMB Policy on Equal Opportunity

    VI-1.00(A)  |  Administration  |  Approved January 31, 2025

    Responsible VP/AVP: Dawn M. Rhodes, DBA, MBA

    Revision History

    Approved by the President, July 1994; Amended effective October 9, 2012 [nondiscrimination definition, per USM VI 1.05]

    Policy Statement

    The University of Maryland, Baltimore is committed to ensuring that equal employment opportunity in the workplace is a reality. The University does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, age, ancestry or national origin, sex, pregnancy or related conditions, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, genetic information, physical or mental disability, marital status, protected veteran's status or any other legally protected classification.

    The Associate Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer has the overall responsibility for implementing and monitoring the University’s employment practices to ensure they do not discriminate. Their responsibilities include ensuring the University will:

    • recruit, hire, train and promote persons in all job titles, without regard to any of the protected classifications set forth above;
    • base all decisions on employment so as to further the principle of equal employment opportunity;
    • make all promotion decisions according to principles of equal employment opportunity by imposing only valid promotion requirements;
    • administer all personnel actions without regard to any of the protected classifications set forth above.  

    Ultimately, every member of the University's management group must assume responsibility for ensuring that all qualified persons are permitted and encouraged to participate in every area of the workforce and that an environment free of discrimination is maintained.

    As an employer, and as a concerned member of the community, the University of Maryland, Baltimore is firmly committed to the principle of equal employment opportunity. The University recognizes that implementation of such a policy requires constant attention and effort. We will take every step necessary to guarantee that this commitment is honored not only on principle, but also in practice.
