Interview Summary
Air Canada is facing more complaints, not from passengers — but from the union representing flight attendants, some of whom claim sexual harassment and discrimination by management. The union is taking issue with a new training model in which flight attendants are being judged on their appearance. On top of that, they claim new uniforms are too sexualized.
Chantel Goldsmith, an employment lawyer in Toronto and partner at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP, was featured on the CBC News program The National, where she discussed the impact these complaints may have on other industries across Canada.
