Affirmative Action Policy

Webster University is committed to a policy of affirmative action, in compliance with the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as amended concerning equal employment practices and equal educational opportunities, without regard to race, sex, sexual orientation, color, creed, age, ethnic or national origin, or non-disqualifying handicap.

The University is committed to do more than ensure employment neutrality; it is committed to make additional efforts to recruit, employ, and promote minorities and women. Decisions on employment and promotion are made on the basis of the qualifications and competencies of the individuals as they relate to the requirements of the position for which they are being considered.

All personnel policies — including those on compensation, fringe benefits, transfers, and training programs — are administered without regard to race, sex, sexual orientation, color, creed, age, ethnic or national origin, or non-disqualifying disability, in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
