Policy Development Services by
THE EDGE
Specializing in harassment, discrimination & interpersonal
conflict in the workplace issues
- Policy development requires
a broad understanding of human rights law, conflict resolution and workplace
management
- Even if you presently have a
policy, it should be reviewed and updated regularly
- A well-developed harassment
policy can act as a leading edge problem solving workplace tool
- Harassment policies that are
not reflective of the human rights code have little impact on lowering corporate
and managerial liability
- Policies limited or silent on
procedure provide no guidance to management
- Harassment policies must include
a reference to the human rights code, a problem solving emphasis, good definitions,
clear steps in the process and the identification of people with policy responsibilities
