Good morning, everyone. I welcome you to this 45th hearing of the Standing Committee on the Status of Women.
Today, we are going to continue our study on sexual harassment in the federal workplace.
During the first hour, we shall hear from Ms. Caroline Cyr and Ms. Judith Buchanan, from the Department of Human Resources and Skills Development. We also welcome Ms. Elizabeth MacPherson, from the Canadian Industrial Relations Board. Ms. MacPherson is in contact with us by videoconference, since she is in Toronto.
Each organization will have 10 minutes at their disposal. Afterwards, we will have a question period.
We will begin with the representatives of the Department of Human Resources and Skills Development.
You have 10 minutes.
