Bill 168 – Amendments to Ontario’s Occupational Health & Safety Act
Tuesday, April 6th, 2010The provincial government has passed important amendments to the Occupational Health and Safety Act which will come into force on June 15, 2010.
The focus of these amendments is on violence and harassment in the workplace. Starting on June 15, 2010, employers must maintain workplace policies regarding violence and harassment in the workplace, and provide appropriate training to staff.
These policies should discuss appropriate reporting, managing complaints and risks associated with workplace violence, and also the circumstances under which the employer will summon immediate assistance to deal with a situation of actual or imminent violence in the workplace. Employers must also do a “risk assessment” of their workplace, to determine if their operations are susceptible to acts of violence.
Most workplaces in Ontario are affected by these amendments. The Ministry of Labour’s fact sheet can be found at the following link: http://www.labour.gov.on.ca/english/hs/sawo/pubs/fs_workplaceviolence.php
If you have any questions about Bill 168 and how it may affect your workplace, please contact Alex Van Kralingen at (416) 351-2774 or avankralingen@wdblaw.ca
