I can categorically state that having a healthy and respectful culture and environment where there is no harassment is one of my personal priorities as the Commissioner of the Correctional Service of Canada. I will also tell you that a great deal of work has been done in that regard, and I can give you many examples.
The Auditor General made recommendations. We now have a comprehensive national strategy, which will be finalized by the end of March. We also conduct a respect campaign divided into themes, during which our managers receive training on how to have difficult conversations with employees.
We presented our first report on the work climate and employee well-being to establish a point of reference. We intend to present these reports annually. We set up discussion groups across the country, precisely to speak to employees. Personally, I have chaired two of these groups. A great deal of work was accomplished.
The national chairperson of our citizen advisory committees told me just two weeks ago that she had noticed a change in the service's culture. That said, it is a large organization with 18,000 employees. It takes time.
