PLEA gratefully acknowledges our primary core funder the Law Foundation of Saskatchewan for their continuing and generous support of our organization.
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 Saskatoon and Regina public libraries are hosting free Law Fairs to help people learn about their legal rights/responsibilities and connect with legal information and support. In Saskatoon, check out the free screening of The Good Canadian presented by Legal Aid Saskatchewan. There's lots to see and do during the 11th annual Saskatchewan Access to Justice (SKA2J) Week!
