PLEA gratefully acknowledges our primary core funder the Law Foundation of Saskatchewan for their continuing and generous support of our organization.
The employer, employees and any person the employer designates to receive complaints about workplace violence or harassment must take training.
The training can be developed by the employer and their partner. The employer and their partner can also identify existing training to use.
The employer and their partner must review the training and if necessary update it at least once every 3 years. It must also be reviewed anytime there is a change to any part of the training.
The training must be specific to the culture, conditions and activities of the workplace and include the following information:
Employers need to take the training once every 3 years. A person designated to receive complaints must take the training before they start receiving complaints and every 3 years after that.
Employees need to take the training within 3 months of being hired and then once every 3 years. Employees also need to take the training if it is updated or their assignment changes and that change means there is an increased or specific risk of workplace harassment or violence.
The Regina Public Library and Saskatoon Public Library are hosting free Law Fair events during Saskatchewan Access to Justice Week to connect people with free legal information, assistance, and support. Attend to acquire legal knowledge and to broaden awareness of legal rights and responsibilities!
