An employer shall establish a written code of practice for harassment at the place of employment to ensure the health and safety of employees to the extent possible (s.374.4(1), Reg. 2018-82)

An employer shall review the codes of practice at least once each year in consultation with all committees and all health and safety representatives (s. 374.8(1))

An employer shall develop, implement, and maintain a written harassment prevention plan, to be reviewed as necessary but at least annually (NLR Reg. 3/19)

Employers must ensure that they provide their employees with information and instruction that is appropriate for the workers with respect to workplace harassment. (OHSA, s. 32.0.8)

A policy must be reviewed at least annually, and must be written and posted conspicuously in the workplace if there are six or more people working at the workplace (s.32.0.1).

Every employer shall, after consultation with employees or their representatives, if any, issue a policy statement on sexual harassment (ESA) The policy statement must include various statements to the effect that reasonable efforts will be taken by the employer to ensure that no sexual harassment occurs in the workplace (ESA)

Employers must take reasonable action to prevent psychological harassment and, whenever they become aware of such behaviour, to put a stop to it. They must, in particular, adopt and make available to their employees a psychological harassment prevention and complaint processing policy. (ARLS)

Employers are advised to promote awareness about harassment prevention through meetings and training.

OHS regulations require all employers to develop and implement an effective written harassment policy, for best practice. This may include proactive training that can make use of videos, publications, or reference materials (WSCC Code of Practice)

No specific training requirements but new regulations are being developed [as of this writing]
