Universiti Malaysia Kelantan (UMK) is committed to cultivating a fair, respectful, and inclusive working environment that eliminates all forms of discrimination. Aligned with the Universities and University Colleges Act 1971 (AUKU 1971), UMK enforces equal opportunity in employment, career progression, and workplace benefits without prejudice based on race, religion, gender, age, nationality, disability status, or socioeconomic background.

UMK’s dedication to fairness and dignity in the workplace is guided by the UMK Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Guidelines, particularly SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, which emphasize the protection of workers’ rights, the elimination of unfair treatment, and the promotion of productive, safe, and empowering employment opportunities. This commitment also complements UMK’s efforts toward SDG 5: Gender Equality and SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities, reinforcing the value of diversity and inclusivity in the university workforce.

By embedding these principles into its governance and human resource practices, UMK strives to maintain a campus environment where every staff member is respected, supported, and provided equal opportunities to thrive professionally and contribute meaningfully to the university’s growth and national development.
