Let’s be real—workplace harassment and violence aren’t just HR issues. They’re real problems affecting real people, and they can destroy team morale, trigger legal nightmares, and damage your company’s reputation faster than you can say “policy binder.”
If you’re an employer in Canada, especially in provinces like Alberta, BC, or Ontario, the law already requires you to do more than hang a Code of Conduct in the breakroom. You’ve got to train your people. You’ve got to prevent incidents. And when something does happen? You need to know how to respond—and fast.
That’s why we built our Respectful Workplace: Harassment and Violence Prevention Online Training—for Canadian businesses who want to do better. Not just legally. But ethically, culturally, and practically.
Let’s unpack why this matters, what your responsibilities actually are, and how Calgary Safety Consultants can help.
A lot of smaller or mid-size companies think respectful workplace training is for large organizations with a big HR team and a full-time safety manager.
Wrong.
Anyone can experience harassment or violence at work—warehouse workers, office staff, nurses, contractors, supervisors, even owners. And the effects are massive:
This stuff affects productivity, morale, and bottom lines. And yeah—it’s the law.
Harassment and violence in the workplace are regulated under provincial and federal OH&S legislation.
For example:
These rules aren’t vague. They require:
Yes—all of them. Frontline, managers, and execs.
Workplace harassment isn’t always physical. It can be subtle, quiet, or hard to see:
And violence? It’s not just fists and threats. It can be verbal abuse, psychological harm, or intimidation—often involving customers, clients, or even the public.
If your team doesn’t know how to spot these red flags—or doesn’t feel safe reporting them—you’ve got a culture risk. That’s where respectful workplace training comes in.
Respectful Workplace: Harassment and Violence Prevention is a practical, Canadian-tailored online course that helps your workers understand:
Our is available 100% online and mobile-friendly, so your team can complete it when it works for them—no classroom booking required.
