DIGGER Active Bystander Training Workshop
Mine Shift has designed the DIGGER Training program to provide guidance on bystander intervention strategies that empower employees to address inappropriate workplace behaviours that include sexual assault, sexual harassment, racism, bullying, intimidation, and discrimination. Workers want to know what to do to address inappropriate behaviours when they happen to them or in their presence.
After the workshop, attendees will have the knowledge and skills to become active bystanders (DIGGERs) in their workplace. The attendees will leave knowing how to identify inappropriate workplace behaviours and understand the extent of their impact on workers and workplaces. They will be informed on the inhibitors to engaging in a situation they are facing and how to overcome them. Finally, attendees will have a customized bystander intervention toolkit, practice in its application and skills to safely intervene when inappropriate workplace behaviours happen to them or in their presence.
This workshop focuses on building effective allyship skills and active bystander intervention actions that everyone can take to address inappropriate workplace behaviours. Bystander Intervention training is a strong tool to build safe, inclusive, and respectful workplaces for all workers.
CIM Connect 2025
CIM CONNECT 2025 offers three days of immersive learning and knowledge sharing, enhanced by professional development courses preceding the convention. Our extensive trade show will feature companies presenting the latest products and services, creating a unique opportunity for networking and discovery.
We chose the theme "Minerals, Innovation, and the Energy Transition" for CIM CONNECT 2025 to reflect the industry's evolving focus from the extraction process ("mining") to the economic value of the product ("minerals"). This shift emphasizes the importance of circularity, which goes beyond traditional mining by considering the recovery of materials that have already been extracted, such as tailings and other secondary sources. While achieving full circularity remains a long-term goal, this theme encourages forward-thinking and innovative approaches to sourcing minerals. It underscores the need to adapt to changing economic and environmental landscapes, promoting sustainable practices and technological advancements that will shape the future of the industry.
