Juripop will contribute to the training of CNESST workers

The Commission des normes, de l’équité, de la santé et de la sécurité du travail (CNESST) will be able to count on Juripop to better prepare its interveners to face the specific issues linked to the prevention of sexual harassment and violence in the workplace, and to support those who are victims.

This partnership is in line with the CNESST’s desire to implement several recommendations stemming from the report entitled Mettre fin au harcèlement sexuel dans le cadre du travail : Se donner les moyens pour agir, published on May 5. These recommendations concern, among other things, ongoing training for all interveners.

“We are thrilled to work with the CNESST on this crucial initiative to better support victims of sexual harassment and assault in the workplace. Juripop will use its expertise in accompanying victims of sexual violence to support CNESST workers in their mission. This collaboration bears witness to our shared commitment to ensuring access to justice for victims of sexual violence in the workplace, by offering them the legal support they need to assert their rights and create safer, fairer working environments.” – Sophie Gagnon, Executive Director of Juripop
