A new effort has been launched to make legal advice more accessible for Yukoners facing sexual harassment in the workplace.
The Yukon Legal Services Society recently opened a clinic with funding assistance from Justice Canada that will offer free and confidential legal advice and information related to workplace sexual harassment.
According to the legal services society, the clinic will be staffed by a senior lawyer. They will be able to provide legal advice up to the point of litigation to those who have experienced or witnessed sexual harassment while at work. General legal advice and information and resources for those who want to keep their workplace free of sexual harassment will also be provided.
