GOALS

After this module you will understand:

  • How harassment or violence in the workplace can be a breach of a collective agreement.
  • When and how a union can file a grievance based on harassment or violence in the workplace.
  • What happens if the union or the employer is not satisfied with the outcome of a grievance process.
  • What happens when a grievance goes to Arbitration.

Collective Agreements

Employees in unionized workplaces are covered by collective agreements and harassment or violence can be a breach of a collective agreement.

Grievances

If a union decides the employer has breached the collective agreement they can file a grievance.

Arbitration

When a grievance cannot be resolved through the efforts of the union and management, or management refuses to act, the union can decide to take the grievance to Arbitration.

PLEA offers free online training on preventing and addressing workplace harassment.
