This webinar is an introduction to the changes to the Canada Labour Code regarding Harassment and Violence, and to the new Workplace Harassment and Violence Prevention Regulations coming into force in Canada on January 1, 2021.
Join us for a webinar on how best to investigate COVID-related claims. The panel will address how HR is implementing the new COVID laws, regulations and guidelines -- and how those laws, regulations and guidelines may impact investigation findings.
This webinar will address critical employment law updates nationally, as well for the jurisdictions of California, New York, Washington, D.C., and Maryland for 2021.
Gender inclusive communication is evolving as people increasingly embrace diverse gender identities, pronouns, and lived names. This session will help prepare investigators to build better rapport and to consider the nuances of respectful and clear documentation.
With some states removing the “severe and pervasive” standards from anti-discrimination laws, along with a trend of increased reporting at workplaces after BLM and #metoo movements, there is a growing demand to think about how to better address and repair harms caused in the workplace by discriminatory actions.
This webinar focuses on the impact of COVID-19 on workplace investigations. Our panel of workplace investigators and in-house counsel will consider new practices that have been adopted by workplace investigators to assist the investigation process. Which of these practices should remain post the pandemic and why? Were there any practices that developed that should now be ditched? We will also consider how these adapted investigation practices were viewed by those who instruct workplace investigators. What was the experience of inhouse counsel with the investigation process during the pandemic? Did these new practices align with our client’s expectations? Were there any difficulties and how were they overcome? Our speakers will share and discuss investigation practices that were adapted or implemented during 2020 and consider whether any of these practices might continue as we emerge from the pandemic.
As external investigators we partner with our clients to provide a valuable service. This means navigating sticky situations and knowing when to be flexible and when not to be.
