Tavia Grant is a reporter for The Globe and Mail who focuses on projects as part of the Globe’s enterprise desk. In recent years, she has covered subjects such as workplace health and safety, refugee flows, the gender pay gap and workplace fatalities. In 2017, she received the Landsberg Award in recognition of her coverage of women’s equality issues. In 2019, she was part of a team that won the National Newspaper Award for Project of the Year, for a series of stories about key data gaps in Canada.

Her 2014 coverage of the health risks from asbestos exposure garnered a National Newspaper Award nomination and a Best in Business award for best content, and put pressure on the federal government to change its policies about the deadly mineral.
