GOALS
Employees in unionized workplaces are covered by collective agreements. Harassment or violence in the workplace can be a breach of a collective agreement.
If a union decides that the employer has breached the collective agreement they can file a grievance.
Unions must act fairly and honestly when dealing with employees' concerns about a breach of a collective agreement.
If a grievance cannot be resolved the union can decide to take it to arbitration.
Employees in unionized workplaces have many of the same options to deal with harassment that non-unionized employees have - with some differences.
The Regina Public Library and Saskatoon Public Library are hosting free Law Fair events during Saskatchewan Access to Justice Week to connect people with free legal information, assistance, and support. Attend to acquire legal knowledge and to broaden awareness of legal rights and responsibilities!
