Our Mission

We are a not-for-profit providing funding and resource guidance for eligible employees in financial distress to access treatment and/or legal resources to deal with ongoing conflict and harm from workplace psychological violence and harassment.

Purpose

Should someone feel unsafe at work, they need support in place. The worker often experiences a range of injuries. This can include but is not limited to, ongoing and unwelcome symptoms of fatigue, loss of psychological safety, anxiety, to a more chronic diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Employees that have experienced these types of symptoms are eager or desperate to understand how to navigate workplace systems including insurance, human rights, unions, OHS and more. These systems are complex and confusing for injured people to navigate.

Many are unaware of what to do, and do not have the resources to access health and/or legal support.

This funding supports harmed workers to:

• regain clarity, confidence, and courage
• stabilize their individual physical and/or psychological functioning in their unique workplace situation,
• access legal resources, and
• stand up for their rights protected by legislation.

Goal

We assist harmed workers with access to the systems involved, by providing education and funding options. Our aim is to assist the harmed worker to gain the needed support whether it is health or legal related. Current OHS legislation states that a worker has the right to report abuse and to be protected from retaliation. With quality information and funding, we aim to empower employees to access health and safety legislation, which is their legal right.
