Understanding Workplace Sexual Harassment - Employees

This workshop for employees aims to enhance participants’ understanding of workplace sexual harassment, identify individuals who are most vulnerable to such behaviour, and raise awareness of individual and collective rights and responsibilities.

By exploring the common targets of sexual and other forms of harassment in the workplace, participants will develop the skills necessary to recognize, prevent, and respond — both informally and formally. They will gain a deeper understanding of their rights and responsibilities, as well as those of their colleagues. They will also learn how to access appropriate resources and services to respond effectively to harassment.

Participants will learn to:

• Recognize the different forms of sexual harassment in the workplace
• Understand who is most often targeted and why
• Identify your rights and responsibilities, and those of your coworkers
• Respond appropriately using informal or formal approaches
• Access available resources and support services when needed

Can be an online or in-person workshop — 2.5 hours
