Overview

Complaints

The Canadian Human Rights Commission tries to resolve complaints of discrimination filed against federally regulated employers, unions and service providers. If a complaint cannot be resolved, the Commission may investigate the case further, and may ultimately request that the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal hear the case.

To file a complaint with the Canadian Human Rights Commission, contact us by telephone, fax or mail.  The Commission will then contact you to provide basic information about the Commission and the Canadian Human Rights Act, and will inform you if a complaint can be filed with the Commission.  If so, the officer will send a kit to you so that a complaint form can be filed.  If not, staff will try to suggest another alternative or organization that can help.
