Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all

Promoting an inclusive and fair workplace is an important part of creating decent work environments and fostering economic growth. Our policies on Equality and Diversity, Non-discrimination and Anti-harassment, ensure equal access to employment and prevent discrimination based on age, physical ability, gender, sexual orientation, economic status, ethnicity, religious affiliation, or political persuasion. To promote transparency and accountability, appeal processes are also in place. USJ is committed to paying all our staff above the Macao living wage. In 2022-2023 academic year, about 20% of our students participated in work placements or internships.
