Consent and Safety in the Workplace Workshop

Everyone deserves to be safe at work. On May 10 from 9AM to 4:30PM, join CLEA, Sexuality Education Resource Centre MB (SERC), Occupational Health Centre and Klinic Community Health for a joint workshop about consent and safety in the workplace. The day will be filled with information and tools to address workplace sexual harassment in Manitoba.

With the combined perspectives of community health and legal education, we will work through important questions like:

• What is workplace sexual harassment and how prevalent is it in today’s climate?
• How can I contribute to a workplace culture where sexual harassment is not tolerated?
• What is consent and how can it be centred in building safer, more respectful workplaces?
• What are the rights of employees and the responsibilities of employers defined by employment law in Manitoba?
• What support and resources are available to those who have experienced workplace sexual harassment?

To enhance the richness and dimension of these critical conversations, participants from any industry or position at their workplace are invited to this participatory session. Breaks and snacks will be provided and 12pm – 1 pm will be allocated for lunch (not provided).

Workshop Location:  SERC Meeting Room – 167 Sherbrook Street
