This section outlines policies, programs, and training related to workplace violence prevention.
The tool may be used during three of the steps for developing your workplace violence policy and program, as
outlined in Developing Workplace Violence and Harassment Policies and Programs: What Employers Need to Know.
During Step 2, Assess the Risks of Workplace Violence, the tool can help you review the policies, programs,
measures, and procedures you have in place to counter workplace violence. During this step, you may wish only to
use the Yes and No columns to determine whether your workplace has the policies, programs, or training in place.
During Step 3, Control the Risks of Workplace Violence, when you are setting up your workplace violence program,
you may wish to use the examples of content for policies, programs, and training as ideas for what you could do in
your workplace.
During Step 4, Monitor and Evaluate, the questions about workplace culture may help you monitor and evaluate your
workplace violence and harassment policies and programs.
Workplaces are not required to use the examples of policy, program, and training content provided in this
tool. Employers may develop their own policies, programs, and training that comply with the requirements of the
Occupational Health and Safety Act.
