Program Overview: What is Canada Workplace Harassment and Violence Prevention?
Canada Workplace Harassment & Violence Prevention is Edstellar's instructor-led compliance program for managers, HR, and health and safety teams operating under federal jurisdiction in Canada. Participants work through Bill C-65, the Canada Labour Code framework, and the duties of employers, supervisors, and employees. Across 24.5 hours, the program covers workplace assessments, incident reporting, the resolution process, and audit readiness.
Training is built around realistic workplace scenarios, not slide decks. Participants draft a prevention policy, conduct a mock workplace assessment, and practice recognizing, reporting, and recording incidents the way the Code requires. Instructors coach managers through the resolution process and the competent person investigation step, with feedback on documentation that would survive scrutiny. The program closes with a capstone where each team builds a complete prevention program and defends it in a simulated review.
Harassment and violence files fall apart on process, not intent: a missed assessment, an undocumented report, a resolution step skipped under pressure. This program trains your managers to follow the Code's sequence exactly. They learn to act early, document cleanly, and protect reporters from retaliation.
Each team leaves the capstone having built and defended a full prevention program, policy, assessment, reporting workflow, and resolution procedure, in front of reviewers playing the regulator. Your managers return knowing precisely what to do when the next incident lands on their desk.
This program helps employees Upskill through structured sessions that turn legal duties into repeatable habits. Your teams gain competency in assessment, reporting, and resolution, and return to work ready to run a prevention program with confidence.

Build Workplace Prevention Programs with Sensitive Reporting and Resolution Practices
Our Canada harassment and violence prevention training connects regulatory coverage with the practical design of a workplace program. Participants assess risks, develop policy controls, and rehearse confidential reporting and resolution workflows. The final package makes responsibilities, support, and records explicit, while distinguishing training scenarios from determinations about actual complaints or legal compliance.
- Step 01
Consult
We discuss your workplace locations and program responsibilities, identifying learning needs in jurisdictional coverage, risk assessment, reporting, resolution, training, and anti-retaliation safeguards.
- Step 02
Plan
We establish the regulatory framework before workplace assessment, prevention policy, incident records, and resolution design, then training and the full program defense.
- Step 03
Align
We align HR, safety, compliance, and management perspectives, adapting legal concepts to experience and emphasizing confidentiality and clearly assigned roles in scenario discussions.
- Step 04
Customize
We tailor fictional site profiles and incident cases to relevant workplaces, explicitly examining federal and provincial scope rather than assuming one framework applies everywhere.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants draft controls, route reports, review competent-person selection, and plan interim measures with feedback on confidentiality, support, records, and the rationale for decisions.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the prevention package for justified coverage, coherent assessment and controls, sensitive reporting and resolution steps, and clear training and anti-retaliation responsibilities.
