Employee Experience Review for A Respectful Workplace

Occupational health and safety (OHS) legislation across Canada, both at the provincial and federal level, is putting more attention on the issue of workplace violence. The goal of this review is to gain insight on the employee experience with respect to incivility, bullying, harassment, sexual harassment and workplace violence.

The questions in this review will help you self-evaluate your level of psychological safety.

Self-advocating can predict a person’s competency and confidence to fulfill their duty to report what they observe and to self-advocate if they are a victim of respectful workplace violation. Self-advocacy is demonstrated by knowing one's rights and being able to speak up and stand up for them -- in this case, report. One helpful competency that supports self-advocating is resiliency.

Once you complete the review you will get a report showing your current resiliency level. You can use this to explore the link between resiliency and self-advocating. Resiliency is a trainable skill that starts with awareness and getting your own baseline.

The data collected in this review will be used to inform employers on what employees are experiencing in the workplace with respect to incivility, bullying, harassment, sexual harassment and workplace violence.
