This course examines human rights harassment, personal harassment, and bullying in the workplace. You will also review arbitrators’ views regarding “discipline worthy” interpersonal misconduct, as well as the rights and responsibilities of the alleged harasser, victim, and union. Participants will examine harassment within common law, the collective agreement, human rights legislation, and recent amendments to the Workers’ Compensation Act. There will also be discussion of strategies for eliminating workplace harassment as well as opportunities for group problem solving exercises.

If you are interested in attending, have not already taken a Bullying & Harassment course, and live within the VDLC area, please contact the VDLC via email at office@vdlc.ca or call 604-254-0703. Payment options for the $100 registration fee are cash or cheque (made payable to the VDLC) and payable at the door, or contact the VDLC to pay by credit card or e-transfer. Space is limited to the first 20 registrants and you must attend both days.

Upon successful completion of this workshop, expense claims should be submitted to MoveUP within 30 days, fully supported by the receipts.

In Solidarity,

Gwenne Farrell
