safe and respectful workplaces

Canada’s Building Trades Unions’ core mission is to improve working conditions, and that includes ensuring a safe and respectful work environment, free of harassment, discrimination, or violence. 

Every worker has the right to dignity and respect, and Canada’s Building Trades Unions is constantly working to improve the culture of safety and respect on job sites across the country. It’s not only the right thing to do, it’s the law. 

Our programs are designed to address harassment, discrimination, and workplace violence.
