Online Workshop – Understanding Labour Exploitation & Human Trafficking
Let’s work toward a Newfoundland and Labrador where every worker is safe, respected, and protected.
Labour exploitation and human trafficking are happening right here in Canada—and they’re often hidden in plain sight.
This free, 90-minute webinar will explore the realities of labour exploitation in Canada, the systemic issues that make some workers more vulnerable, and the steps we can take—individually and collectively—to support ethical, fair, and safe workplaces.
You’ll gain insight into the barriers im/migrants face, the signs of exploitation, and what you can do to support ethical employment practices and advocacy efforts that promote fair and just working conditions.
Join Amal Unite & Empower and FCJ Refugee Centre Toronto for this informative session.
Whether you’re part of a large organization, a small team, or simply want to better understand what’s happening in our communities—being aware is an important first step.
