There are many laws governing the employment relationship from health and safety to employment standards to human rights. Are they all heading in the same direction? Is there a legal duty to create a psychologically safe workplace?
This is a very practical and interactive session that makes the discussion interesting and engaging. This process facilitates a greater practical understanding of the issues and how to respond.
The virtual webinar will cover both existing and emerging legal duties as well as providing practical solutions to the challenges arising from this duty.
Learning Objectives:
This innovative session examines where the law is heading and what your duties are now and what they are becoming including:
• The interplay between employment standards, human rights, contract law, tort law and WSIB
• Whether there is an implied term in employment agreements for psychological protection
• Whether employers have a duty to prevent psychological harm under occupational health and safety laws
• Whether the existence of the voluntary National Standard for Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace creates a default standard by which the courts will measure employers
