About the course
What this course covers.
Harassment and violence in the workplace carry a human cost and a legal one - and legislation across Canada requires employers to deliver specific training on both. This course package gives supervisors and employees the information they need to prevent, recognise, and respond to harassment, bullying, and violence, and to comply with the law.
The harassment portion covers what constitutes sexual harassment, other types of harassment and bullying, and retaliation, the relevant legislation, the difference between impact and intent, and consenting versus welcome conduct. It works through how to prevent harassment, how to respond if it occurs, manager and supervisor responsibilities and liability, and the company complaint procedure. The violence portion covers the harassment-to-violence connection, the types of workplace violence, high-risk employment, warning signs, violence prevention tips, and steps to prevent escalation.
Companies use the course to meet their legislated harassment and violence training obligations and to give a documented training record.
