The Prevention of Harassment Workplace Partnership
HR Meets OHS to Create Healthier Workplaces
NS harassment legislation has just been enacted, and it will take effect on September 1, 2025. New requirements mean what was once HR ‘cultural’ issues are now OHS legal requirements. These functions need to collaborate like never before. How do you leverage the legislative strength and risk management frameworks of OHS and marry them with HR systems and program development to create compliant and healthier workplaces?
The Questions Everyone's Asking
Let’s get practical. Who does what? When is it HR versus OHS jurisdiction? How is employee confidentiality protected while still meeting safety requirements? What does JOHSC actually need to know about harassment investigations? Who get involved? Who's job is it?
Our “Now What?” series translates this legal change into practical guidance.
Each article focuses on role clarity, collaboration, and prevention strategies, showing how HR’s people lens and OHS’s systems lens can work together to reduce harm and create healthier, safer workplaces.
