ABOUT
My Healthy Workplace is an educational tool that helps people learn more about how to prevent and respond to harassment and violence in the workplace.
The tool is created by Digital Public Square, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to rethinking and redesigning the way technology is used to support communities. Our goal: Healthy communities enabled by good technology.
The information presented on My Healthy Workplace was created by the Canada School of Public Service. The goal of this tool is to increase knowledge about how to prevent and respond to harassment and violence at work, particularly in light of new amendments to the Canada Labour Code, Part II and the Workplace Harassment and Violence Prevention Regulations that came into force in January 2021.
All the content within the tool has been cross-checked against the new legislation. Please take the extra time to read more about each card by following the link to each citation. Information on this website is not legal or mental health advice. Always consult a legal or medical professional if you require assistance.
To understand how people answer and use the tool, and to evaluate the tool’s usefulness, Digital Public Square records non-identifying data about use (e.g., what users click, survey answers, time-spent on the website, and other aggregate web performance metrics). This non-identifiable information will be shared with the Canada School of Public Service to help inform future learning products and understand the impact of new information. We are available to answer questions about this product. You may contact Digital Public Square by email at hello@digitalpublicsquare.org.
