The Commission does not order remedies. (The Commission can assess the reasonableness of the remedies offered by the respondent however).</p> <p>The adjudicator will issue remedies to try and make the person or group who has been discriminated against "whole". The remedies are not intended to punish the person or organization that has contravened The Human Rights Code.</p> <p>The Commission has an interest in ensuring that employers, service providers and landlords understand their responsibilities under The Human Rights Code and make changes where needed so they can ensure that no one is discriminated against in Manitoba.</p> <p>For more information see our <a href="pdf/guides/guide_to_remedies_NEW.pdf" target="_blank">Guide to Remedies</a>.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="footer"> <table> <tr> <td width="250" valign="top"><a href="../education/index.html"><p class="title">HUMAN RIGHTS SEMINARS</p> <hr/> <div class="container"> <img src="../images/black-sem-edit.jpg" alt="Human Rights Seminars" class="responsive" /> <div class="overlay1"> <div class="text">Learn more about sessions scheduled in your area.</div> </div></div></a></td> <td width="250" valign="top"><a href="../education/resources/guidelines.html"><p class="title">GUIDELINES</p> <hr/> <div class="container"> <img src="../images/black-guide-edit.jpg" alt="Guidelines" class="responsive" /> <div class="overlay2"> <div class="text">Learn more about discrimination and the principles of reasonable accommodation.</div> </div></div></a></td> <td width="250" valign="top"><a href="https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.html?source=1SWzykVi2SmuFfUVy5X6i0MDeYHhfF0FKzeRKVsoy_Vc&font=Default&lang=en&initial_zoom=2&height=650"><p class="title">30 YEARS OF THE HUMAN RIGHTS CODE</p> <hr/> <div class="container"> <img src="../images/ballons2.jpg" alt="30 Years of the Human Rights Code" class="responsive" /> <div class="overlay3"> <div class="text">Read more about the human rights milestones over the last 30 years of The Human Rights Code in Manitoba.</div> </div></div></a></td> </tr> </table> </div> <div class="contact"> <table> <tr valign="top"> <td><p class="title">Winnipeg Office</p> <p><strong>p:</strong> 204-945-3007 | <strong>f:</strong> 204-945-1292<br/>700-175 Hargrave Street, Winnipeg, MB R3C 3R8 </p></td> <td><p class="title">Brandon Office</p> <p><strong>p:</strong> 204-726-6261 | <strong>f:</strong> 204-726-6035<br/>341-340 Ninth Street, Brandon, MB R7A 6C2</p></td> <td><p><strong>Toll Free:</strong> 1-888-884-8681<br/><strong>Email:</strong> <a href="mailto:hrc@gov.mb.ca">hrc@gov.mb.ca</a></p></td> </tr> </table></div> </body> </html>
