View our seasoned panel for an explanation of the background and objectives of Law Society of Upper Canada’s sexual orientation and gender identity model inclusion policy for the workplace.  More specifically, engage in a discussion which includes:

• How can we identify if there really is a problem?  Are members of the LGBT community self-selecting out of firms or is it a recruitment and/or attrition issue?
• What can law firms learn from in-house legal departments with respect to LGBT inclusion?
• What are the differences between men, women and trans-individuals regarding inclusion?
