Anti-Harassment and Bystander Training

Oct 30, 2024 | CUPE Local 5430 Office, Region 5, Yorkton, Saskatchewan | English
When we are disrespected in our union, or when harm, harassment, and discrimination happen we are unsafe. We would not accept it from our supervisors and managers at work, and it is not ok in our union space. When we witness others being harmed, oppressed or injured, we can intervene in safe and effective ways before, during, or after a harassing or violent situation.

In this 3-hour workshop, learn and practice how to intervene.
