Ontario’s new human rights system
A guide to human rights applications
Housing and human rights
Information about discrimination in rental housing produced by the Human Rights Legal Support Centre and the Centre for Equality Rights in Accommodation.
ABOUT CERA
The Centre for Equality Rights in Accommodation was founded in 1987. It is a charitable non-governmental organization that promotes human rights in housing.
If you feel you have experienced discrimination related to finding or keeping housing in Ontario, the Centre for Equality Rights in Accommodation (CERA) can help.
Temporary and casual workers
The Human Rights Code protects employees, temporary, and casual staff, and other persons in a work context, such as people who work to gain experience or for benefits. This also includes contractors, and people sent by employment agencies even if they would not be considered "employees" for the purposes of other legislation, such as the Employment Standards Act.
