I have a close personal friend who moved from Halifax to EDM with her family in November incurring great expense specifically for new role.

From day 1 she was subjected to a toxic work environment, and continuous harassment. This finally broke her, as she had no support network in EDM.

She had a talk with her supervisor who is remote with the intention to quit. The supervisor convinced her to talk to HR as they don’t want to lose her. She did and HR substantiated the harassment complaint and sent her a letter outlining the investigation. They said they would “address it appropriately” but he’s instrumental to the business.

She can work 100% remotely. Her supervisor already does. She has permission from her supervisor to do so. She has no issue staying in the role remotely however HR has informed her she is expected back in the office. Where she will be alienated as the one who went to HR(they interviewed 10 people about it).

Should she get a lawyer? Or is she best to just give her 2 weeks and quit? She’s willing to eat the $10,000 left on her lease just to go home however I feel she must have some leverage with a signed substantiated complaint.


Long winded I apologize
