Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Representative Training Course

The Collective Agreement now ensures that an EDI Representative is nominated for each NABET production as of January 1, 2023. The EDI Representative is a specifically trained representative who assists individuals with concerns related to equity, diversity and inclusion. Their role on set is to promote fairness for NABET technicians, supporting their right to a workplace that is free of discrimination as required by the Human Rights Code.

Those who are interested in being an on set EDI Representative are required to complete this course before they can assume the role. Any person who identifies as Indigenous/Aboriginal, Black, or a Person of Colour; LGBTQ2S+; gender and/or sexually diverse; non-binary; and/or disabled may fill the role. (For members who identify as women but do not belong to at least one additional equity deserving group, NABET also offers training for an on-set Women’s Representative who handles concerns and intake regarding workplace violence, harassment, and similar issues. We encourage you to register for this course instead of the EDI Representative training).

EDI Representative training will cover the law surrounding workplace discrimination and provide an indepth review of the roles and responsibilities of the on set EDI Representative in order to equip you with the skills and abilities to complete intake for workplace complaints. Members who've already completed this training are welcome to attend if they would like a refresher.

Advance registration required for all participants by Thursday, May 11, 2023.
