Course

We spend more than 30% of our lives at work, so it comes as no surprise that our work environment has a major effect on our health. If you suspect that you are feeling the effects of a workplace chemical exposure and it is affecting your health, how can this be established? This workshop explores how to assemble the connection between occupational exposure to chemicals and their adverse effects.

  • How did exposure occur?
  • What was the extent of exposure -- is this demonstrable or inferred?
  • What were the adverse health effects experienced?
  • Does the scientific literature support a conclusion of “work-relatedness”?

Union’s Role in the Prevention of Sexual Harassment and Gender Based Violence: Lessons Learned and Promising Practices

From the #MeToo movement, to the surge of anti-LGBTQI+ discrimination—unions face the challenge of how to tackle the impact of sexual harassment and gender-based violence on their members. The roots of gender discrimination and sexual violence are deeply embedded in workplace culture, as our workplaces are microcosms of society. Workers hold multiple dimensions of identity, and the intersection of these identities shapes the experience, impact, choice of strategy, and fear of retaliation when confronting these issues.
