ETFO's
LGBTQ Rights in Your Workplace brochure is a call to action for all members to play a role in ensuring an inclusive, respectful and safe workplace in their schools. It sets out LGBTQ rights in the context of the Ontario Human Rights Code and Ontario College of Teachers Ethical Standards.

It also references Ontario's
Equity and Inclusive Education Strategy and the Accepting Schools Act which provide a framework for boards, administrators and teachers to create positive and inclusive school climates.
