Creating and Fostering a Safe Workplace for Trans and Gender Diverse Employees
Wednesday, November 19 from noon - 1 p.m. EDT.
Identifying as a trans or gender diverse employee in policing institutions comes with unique and often misunderstood or unseen challenges. This webinar is focused on trans and gender diverse employee wellness within policing institutions and how leaders, supervisors, and colleagues can foster and ensure a positive and safe workplace for trans and gender diverse employees.
Webinar panelists, who represent members from the Gender Diversity in Canadian Policing Advisory Group, will explore topics including policy creation, understanding unsafe spaces, employee resources, gender transitioning in the workplace, allyship, and leadership forward approaches to fostering inclusion.
The panelists will discuss these topics whilst sharing lived experiences as gender diverse, trans folks, and allies working in policing institutions across Canada.
