The “Art” of Accommodation – Human Rights & Avoiding Discrimination

The Art of Accommodation – As the employment & human rights law landscape continually evolves, staying informed about new rules and requirements is crucial for employers. Given the upcoming changes in WorkSafeBC and the rising instances of discrimination, harassment, and other human rights claims, we are tailoring our annual seminar to address these pressing topics.

Our Employment & Labour Group is delighted to announce The “Art” of Accommodation – Human Rights & Avoiding Discrimination seminar this winter, dedicated to helping you navigate the complexities of employee accommodations. This topic has been chosen based on popular demand and serves as a natural progression from our 2020 series, The “Art” of Hiring, and our 2022 series, The “Art” of Firing. We are confident that you will find this session both valuable and informative.

Topics we will be covering include:

• Discrimination & the Workplace
• Duty to Accommodate Overview
• WorkSafeBC’s new Duty to Maintain Employment
• Family Status Discrimination Test – Gibraltar Mines case
• Disability, Benefits & Accommodation
