Equity and Diversity Guide and Resource Manual
Prepared by the Canadian Bar Association’s Equality Committee, this resource was developed to assist efforts to promote equality and diversity within the legal profession. The Guide and Resource Manual can be used to:
- Take leadership on and communicate about equality and diversity strategies as part of core business practices,
- Develop implementation plans to enhance representation in all workplace activities, and
- Measure growth over time and benchmark accomplishments.
Also part of the Equity and Diversity Guide and Resource Manual is the video “It’s About Respect”. The video series presents three very short stories to open a discussion about the biases and prejudices that may be present in law firm situations. By exploring assumptions and increasing self-awareness, lawyers will be able to recognize ways in which they can contribute to a discrimination-free workplace.
