Description

Employers, service providers, landlords, and others have a duty to accommodate. This means making changes to rules, standards, policies, workplace culture, and physical environments to eliminate or reduce the negative impact that someone faces because of a protected ground detailed in the Alberta Human Rights Act. This workshop will provide a general understanding of Human Rights with emphasis on discrimination and harassment, including when these arise in a workplace; the legal duty to accommodate in a workplace and the attendant responsibilities of an employer and an employee in the accommodation process.
