The Centre for Human Rights, Equity and Inclusion (REI) hosts a variety of resources to assist students, faculty and staff in upholding human rights, equity, and inclusion at York University. In addition to the resources noted here, visit us to see the ones available in our office (see address below).
Online Harassment Guide for Faculty and Staff
Students, staff, and faculty at York are working, learning, teaching, and collaborating online and in virtual spaces more and more.
Many forms of unacceptable behaviour, including personal harassment and harassment based on the grounds listed in the Human Rights Code (Ontario) (which includes sexual harassment), can take place online much the same as they might take place in person.
If you believe you are experiencing harassment online or in virtual spaces, you have options for taking action to ensure the harassing behaviour ends and that York Community members are held accountable for their conduct or comments.To learn more, please click the link below for the full guide.
