Rights violations in the workplace are serious and should be handled immediately. Here’s what you can do: 

• Start with Your Supervisor: Address the issue directly with your supervisor to seek resolution. 
• Escalate to HR: If unresolved, escalate the issue to Human Resources for further action. 
• Speak with Your Course Coordinator: For course-related jobs, talk to your practicum or internship coordinator for support. 
• Union Support: If you’re in a union, contact your union representative for guidance through the grievance process. 
• Consult an Employment Lawyer: For serious violations or if the issue persists, consider seeking legal advice.  
• Government Assistance: File an Employment Standards Claim with the Ontario Ministry of Labour for issues like unpaid wages or overtime. 
• Human Rights Complaints: For human rights violations, consider filing a complaint with the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal.
