June is Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ+) Pride Month. In recognition of this important time of year, this week I sat down with Suzanne Mills to talk about the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ workers.
Suzanne is an associate professor in the School of Labour Studies at McMaster University. Her research explores the work and employment experiences of LGBTQ+ workers, particularly in deindustrializing cities. In undertaking this research, Suzanne and her colleagues have worked with a variety of community and labour partners, including LGBTQ+ organizations, unions, worker centres, and Indigenous communities and governments.
