Bethany Hastie joined Queen’s Law as an Associate Professor and Director of the Centre for Law in the Contemporary Workplace in 2026. Her research spans a broad array of labour and employment law topics, including technological change, freedom of association, and employment discrimination, and is animated by concerns about the growing divergence between the legal regulation of work and the day-to-day realities, needs and interests of workers.

She earned her JD at UBC, and LLM and DCL at McGill University.
