NWT Racialized Workers Committee
The PSAC NWT Racialized Workers Committee focuses on issues affecting Racialized members in the workplace and the Union.
Some of our work is focused on reviewing, discussing and making recommendations on issues, policies, strategies and initiatives that affect Racialized members.
We also keep our eye on legislation, provisions or practices that are discriminatory and recommend union policies, programs or actions that will end discrimination and racism.
Meetings are open to all PSAC members in good standing in the Northwest Territories who are Racialized Workers.
Our Mandate
The objectives of the PSAC North NWT Racialized Workers Committee are to identify, promote, and assist union actions affecting Racialized members by:
- Educating, politicizing, and mobilizing Racialized members by making links between themselves, the union, the workplace and the community.
- Empowering, uniting and engaging Racialized members to take action and move the Human Rights Agenda forward.
- Encouraging networking and open communication among Racialized members, the PSAC National Human Rights Committee and other PSAC National/Regional bodies.
Making a Difference
