We are Rosa. Our goal is to create workplaces where all workers can go to work and not get sexually harassed. That’s it. This historic survey is asking you what kind of changes you want to see in your workplace and what kind of barriers around reporting and accessing legal systems you’ve experienced. We’re asking these questions, because you, the worker, have lived through this. Your voice needs to be heard in order to direct the change you want to see in your workplace. 2020 has been rough. We, the arts workers, the contract workers are struggling to pay bills, stay healthy, and ensure that our human rights are protected regardless of skin colour. We have a long way to go.

What we know is that we can’t give up. When we do go back to work, we can’t go back to where we were. That’s why it’s important that you fill out this survey. Your voice and your stories matter.

We ask that you share this survey with your co-workers in the arts. The more people that come to the table articulating the change you want to see, the more impact this survey can have. We want the results of this survey to lead the change. Our job at Rosa is to amplify the change you want to see and to work with employers and unions to see these changes through.
