SUMMARY:Making a Fair Assessment: Evaluating credibility from an EDI perspective
DESCRIPTION:Moderator\n\n \nKarine Pelletier\nAdjudicator\nManitoba Human Rights Commission \nVice-Chairperson\nManitoba Labour Board \n\n\nSpeakers\n\n \nTonie Beharrell\nLawyer and Workplace Investigator\nSouthern Butler Price LLP \n\n\n \nConnie Cheung\nEmployer Counsel\nSherrard Kuzz LLP \n\n\n \nAmarkai Laryea\nUnion Counsel\nRavenLaw \n\n\n \nDr. Kristine Peace\nProfessor\nMacEwan University \n\n\nIn this webinar\, expert panelists will examine how stereotypes\, bias\, and other equity\, diversity\, and inclusion considerations can influence assessments of credibility during grievance procedures\, in investigations\, and at arbitration. Panelists will highlight strategies for addressing these concerns and examine questions including: \n\nHow can bias and stereotypes impact how witnesses are perceived and their credibility assessed? How can trauma\, cultural factors\, or experiences of discrimination impact the way in which a witness delivers evidence? Do legal professionals have a professional obligation to recognize and address these concerns?\nWhat role can these factors play in shaping perceptions of the merit of complaints made through grievance or other internal procedures? How might this inadvertently “weed out” legitimate complaints? How can lawyers advising on such matters\, as well as workplace parties\, proactively address these factors?\nHow can investigators ensure that bias and stereotypes do not impact their assessment of witness credibility? What are best practices for ensuring investigations are conducted in a fair and unbiased manner?\nHow do these same factors impact the arbitral process and how testimony and evidence presented at arbitration is evaluated? When is it necessary to present expert evidence on bias or stereotypes?\nWhat training should legal professionals and workplace parties undergo to better recognize and address these issues? Who should receive this training?\n\nAccreditationCPD\n\nThis program has been approved for Continuing Professional Development 1.5 hours under Category A of the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Log of the Human Resource Professionals Association (HRPA).\n\n\n\nThis program has been approved by CPHR BC & Yukon for 1.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\n\n\n\n\nThis program has been approved by CPHR Alberta for 1.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\n\n\n\n\nThis program contains 1 hour and 30 minutes of EDI Professionalism content. \n\n\n\n\n \n\nThis program has been approved by the Law Society of British Columbia for 1.5 Substantive Hours; 0 Professionalism Hours.\nMembers of the Law Society of New Brunswick may count this program for 1.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\nMembers of the Nova Scotia Barristers’ Society may count this program for 1.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.
