What role does the union have in developing or monitoring inclusive workplace policies? What unique provisions should employers and unions consider when determining benefits policies and administration of benefits?\nHow can employers and unions support transitioning employees who request special assistance or accommodations? What are best practices when creating a workplace support plan for an employee who is transitioning?\nWhat privacy concerns are triggered when it comes to an employee’s gender-diverse status information? How can employers and unions ensure that information about gender identity and transition is private and protected? Under what circumstances can gender identity status information\, or information pertaining to an employee’s transition\, be disclosed and to whom? What are best practices if disclosure is necessary?\nWhat steps should employers and unions take to protect gender-diverse employees from harassment in the workplace?\nWhat role does diversity training on gender identity and gender expression have in creating a trans-inclusive workplace?
