There is no way to characterize workplace bullying or workplace violence to a specific industry or business. These incidents can occur anywhere and at any time. This is why it is so important to have a workplace violence policy in place and to invest in workplace violence prevention and training for your employees. In Ontario, 2010 changes to the OHSA now require business owners to develop and enforce a workplace violence policy to prevent these events from occurring. Our online workplace violence training course will ensure that employers, managers, supervisors, and employees understand the rights of other workers, what constitutes acceptable and unacceptable behaviour, and how to create a policy that will enforce and control workplace interactions. Course content includes:
- Definitions
Elements of a Typical Violence Program
Control Methods
Procedures
Regulations Review
