Workplace discrimination in Canada is a significant issue that affects a wide range of employees and has an impact on broader workplace culture. Discrimination in the workplace is experienced by many people from equity-deserving groups, including Indigenous Peoples, women, racialized people, persons living with disabilities and 2SLGBTQ+ individuals. Intersectionality also plays a key role in how discriminatory practices affect people with multiple identities.
