Indigenous Cultural Safety in the Workplace

Please join Coastal Research, Education, and Advocacy Network (CREAN) staff and Board for our Annual General Meeting, which will feature a thought-provoking discussion on Indigenous cultural safety and the impacts in every workplace.

What is cultural safety? Cultural safety involves creating an environment where individuals feel safe and respected, regardless of their cultural background. Workplaces that are culturally unsafe for Indigenous people can limit income earning potential, make it harder to climb the corporate ladder, make employees feel devalued, and affect the Canadian economy in the long-term.

Are you an employee interested in sharing positive or negative workplace experiences? Are you an employer curious about how to make your workplace more culturally safe? Join us on April 16 at 6pm at 709 Douglas St. for a conversation. A light dinner will be provided.

We respectfully acknowledge that this event takes place on the unceded territories of the Lekwungen (Chekonein, Chilcowitch, Swengwhung, Kosampsom, Whyomilth, Teechamitsa, Kakyaakan, Songhees, Esquimalt) and W̱SÁNEĆ (SȾÁUTW/Tsawout, W̱JOȽEȽP/Tsartlip, BOḰEĆEN/Pauquachin, WSIḴEM/Tseycum) Peoples.
