Consent at Work: Preventing Sexual Harassment in the Workplace Among Newcomers, Immigrants, and International Students

What is Workplace Sexual Harassment?

Workplace Sexual Harassment is any act of a sexual nature carried out without consent within a workplace setting or circumstance. Workplace Sexual Harassment is rooted in systems of oppression and is often used to control or gain power over others. This results in much higher rates of harassment for workers who face structural barriers and inequities in society.

What is Consent at Work?

The Consent at Work project delivers culturally relevant, responsive and accessible training on consent and workplace sexual harassment to immigrants, newcomers, and international students.

The workshop is available in both official languages as a cost-free 6-hour in-person session in Winnipeg, Brandon and Westman, Northern, and rural Manitoba.
