Canadian Association of Municipal Administrators (CAMA)- Diversity Survey

The National Indigenous Fire Safety Council and the Canadian Association of Municipal Administrators are asking for your support in completing a short survey. The purpose of this survey is threefold. The first is to determine whether municipal governments and fire services in Canada have hiring policies to target specified employment equity groups. Second, we are interested in knowing the proportion of identified Indigenous peoples, women, and other visible minorities who are a part of your organization. Third, we would like to get a better understanding of what challenges you might face in hiring members of designated groups.

As leader of your unit, you are well placed to help us identify these issues and share best information and practices. The results of the survey will help Fire Services Units and Canadian Municipalities develop robust hiring, retention and professional development programs targeted toward women, Aboriginal peoples (First Nations, Inuit or Métis), persons with disabilities, and members of visible minorities (other than Aboriginal people).
