The BC Human Rights Code prohibits discrimination and harassment based on various protected characteristics, such as race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and more.

The BC Human Rights Code prohibits discrimination and harassment based on various protected characteristics, such as race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and more. Bullying can fall under harassment if it creates a hostile work environment based on these characteristics.
