Consent at Work: Sexual Harassment in the Workplace

In-Person

Learn about workplace sexual harassment, consent, and boundaries, and explore cultural misunderstandings that can arise in diverse workplaces. Gain an overview of rights and protections under the Manitoba Human Rights Code, including employer obligations and employee responsibilities. The session will introduce aspects of Canadian workplace culture of interest for newcomers, immigrants, and international students, and will provide bystander intervention strategies and guidance on supporting someone who discloses workplace harassment.

Presented by the Sexuality Education Resource Centre (SERC), in partnership with the Community Legal Education Association (CLEA).
