Some of the requirements include conducting a risk assessment for workplace violence and harassment, developing violence prevention policies and programs, and conducting training.
Canadian Occupational Safety recently sat down with Norm Keith, partner at Toronto-based law firm, Gowlings, and Cathy Chandler, an occupational health and safety consultant at Gowlings, to talk about some of the vital points of Bill 168, including some guidelines on how to conduct risk assessment, develop workplace violence prevention programs, and conduct violence training for employees and managers.
