Overview
What this RAVS document does
Alberta legislation requires every employer to have a workplace violence policy. Hiring clients require this element because the policy is the formal statement that anchors a contractor's broader violence and harassment program.
This document states your company's violence policy in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: the commitment to a violence-free workplace, definitions, the duties of management and workers, the link to the hazard assessment and reporting process, and how the policy is communicated. Each point ties back to Part 27 of the Alberta OHS Code. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that a violence policy exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For this element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- A written violence policy with a clear statement of commitment
- Definitions of workplace violence and harassment
- The duties of management, supervisors, and workers
- The link to the violence hazard assessment
- The reporting and response process the policy supports
- How the policy is communicated and reviewed

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for Alberta contractors whose hiring clients require the violence policy element in ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks. Because every Alberta employer must have a violence policy, the element is widely required across all industries. If a hiring client's pre-qualification configuration flags violence policy, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the violence policy review the first time
- Use the Alberta version. The document is written to Part 27 of the Alberta OHS Code, the framework ISNetworld reviewers expect for Alberta work.
- Sign and date the policy. A reviewer expects a policy signed by senior management and kept current - an unsigned or undated policy reads as weak.
- Connect it to the program. The policy should link to the violence hazard assessment and reporting process - pair it with the Workplace Violence RAVS if your client flags both.
