Thank you, but not goodbye

The SHAPE Your Workplace projects are winding down.  Our goal was to support individuals and businesses in preventing and addressing workplace sexual harassment.  Generous funding from Justice Canada has allowed us to provide public legal education and individual legal advice to workers across Ontario.

There is more to do to ensure that workplaces in Ontario are safe for everyone.

Therefore, we will continue to post information and research that:

• Helps workers to understand their rights and options;
• Helps employers understand their legal obligations under the law; and
• Promotes safe and healthy workplaces.

Many community legal clinics in Ontario offer employment law services. If you or someone you know is harassed at work, contact your local legal clinic.  Go to  Contact - Shape (shapeyourworkplace.ca) to find a clinic near you.  If they can’t help you, they can direct you to someone who will.

We want to thank:

• The 21 community legal clinics who participated in these projects
• The employers, unions and other organizations who welcomed us into their workplaces
• The projects across Canada that collaborated in promoting healthy workplaces; and
• Justice Canada for making this all possible.
