Employers who know about workplace harassment and do not take steps to stop it can be held responsible for the harassment.
You must still be working at the place where the discrimination occurred to make a human rights complaint.
Complaints can be made up to 2 years after the incident.
The Human Rights Commission decides if a report of discrimination can result in a complaint.
The first step after there is a complaint is to try and resolve the matter by agreement.
If a complaint cannot be resolved, it must be referred to court for a hearing.
If your human rights complaint goes to court you will need to hire your own lawyer to present the case.
The Saskatchewan Human Rights Code defines sexual harassment.
In most cases before there is a court hearing the person who allegedly discriminated is asked to make a final offer to resolve the matter out of court.
A court hearing a discrimination case cannot order monetary compensation.
