Labour and Employment Law Related Volunteer Opportunities

Bring Workplace Equality Issues to the Community with LEAF at Work!

LEAF is looking for law student volunteers to facilitate one-hour LEAF at Work workshops in high schools. These workshops provide students with tools, resources, and information to help them make informed decisions about their legal rights in the workplace. As a facilitator you will receive training, tools and support, including a curriculum that provides current legal information and an equality rights analysis.

There is a mandatory 5-hour training session tentatively scheduled for Sunday, October 18, 2009, at a downtown location. This training session will give you the relevant legal information and provide you with excellent public speaking training/practice. Volunteers are expected to facilitate 1-2 school sessions per semester, in pairs. This is a 4-5 hour commitment per semester (exclusive of training), including travel time to schools. The LEAF at Work program is eligible for OPIR hours.
