Canada’s Respect at Work Forum 2026: From Awareness to Accountability

brings together workers, advocates, legal professionals, researchers, organizational leaders and community voices for an important conversation about workplace bullying, harassment, retaliation, psychological safety and accountability.

For years, workers have been told to speak up. This Forum asks the harder question: What happens after they do?

We will examine what happens when workplace systems fail to protect people, what meaningful accountability should look like, and the human and organizational cost when bullying, harassment and retaliation are ignored, minimized or mishandled.
