Workplace Safety is everyones’ responsibility. The Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Act of Prince Edward Island requires employers to take on certain responsibilities to ensure Workers’ Safety. Safety includes physical safety as well as psychological safety. The law will be changing soon. In the near future, every Island employer will be required to have a harassment policy. This policy will need to include certain components. Attend this session to learn more. Learn what due diligence is and how you can ensure that you meet the requirements for it. Learn about the resources available to help you prepare for this new policy requirement, as well as other workplace safety concerns. Have an opportunity to have any workplace safety question answered.
