Across all sectors, organizations are recognizing how much they can gain from applying trauma-informed principles when addressing workplace violence, harassment, and bullying. In this webinar, experts will explore the benefits to employers, unions, and employees of adopting trauma-informed principles. Specifically, panelists will discuss:

  • What does it mean to be trauma-informed? What does it mean to implement trauma-informed approaches in labour relations processes?
  • What legal obligations do employers and unions have to protect and promote employee mental health in the workplace and to address workplace violence, harassment, and bullying? How may adopting trauma-informed approaches help ensure that employers and unions meet these obligations?
  • What are some trauma-informed best practices that employers and unions can employ throughout internal complaint, alternative dispute resolution, performance management, disciplinary, or accommodation processes?
  • Why are trauma-informed approaches important when conducting investigations into allegations of workplace violence, harassment, or bullying? What does recent caselaw suggest regarding what constitutes an appropriate investigative process and how may trauma-informed approaches assist in ensuring a fair, adequate, and effective process?
  • Can employers and unions be held liable for failing to employ trauma-informed approaches?
  • What does evidence suggest regarding how trauma-informed approaches can help to improve employee retention, reduce workplace violence, harassment, and bullying, and create psychologically safe workplaces?
