About.

Me Too Mining Association was created to facilitate a conversation about sexual violence, sexual harassment, bullying, racism, intimidation and discrimination experienced by workers  in Mining, Mineral Exploration and Mining Impacted Communities.  

Me Too is women, men and the beautiful spectrum inbetween, finding a space to talk about difficult and traumatic experiences, shining a light on dark corners in our lives, healing, sharing burdens, finding resources, finding community, changing cultures, preventing violence and harm and moving our lives forward.

Established in 2018

Mining related Organizations, Universities, Trades and Corporations are encouraging diverse workers to join the mining industry but there needs to be a change in the workplace culture so all workers are safe and secure.

Our Goals

​MeTooMining wants to let everyone in mining who has been impacted by sexual violence/harassment know they are not alone, we stand in solidarity with them.  We need to start the conversation and talk about the experiences of all workers in mining, exploration and mining impacted communities. 

MeTooMining will work to empower the mining workforce to stand up  for themselves and coworkers and advocate for safe, inclusive and respectful workplace cultures through bystander intervention strategies (DIGGER Program) and encouraging workplace allyship so that, 

• it is clear inappropriate workplace behaviours are not tolerated and will be challenged safely and effectively,
• there is uniform understanding of behaviors and actions that constitute sexual harassment in the workplace,
• workers gain knowledge to overcome inhibitors to bystander intervention and become workplace allies.

MeTooMining will advocate for strong programs and policies against inappropriate workplace behaviours and ensure workers are provided avenues for reporting that are effective and include, 

• Clear policy on investigation procedures so that privacy and security are assured,
• Access to an outside agency when senior management or board members are involved,
• Ensure a safe and secure workplace for all workers.​​
