Helping Employers Understand Family Violence February 28 2018
A 20 page guide was recently released with the purpose of helping workplaces support employees dealing with family violence. Although the guide was released by the PEI government, the guide should prove to be helpful for all provinces across Canada.
In light of changes to employment legislation across Canada, specifically new Domestic Violence Leaves, employers should ensure they are informed and fully understand the effects of family violence. The guide provides information on what is family violence, the signs of family violence, the effects it has on the workplace as well as guidelines for supervisors and managers when supporting employees affected by family violence.
To view the guide and learn more about family violence, please visit our Laws section under the Prince Edward Island tab.
Un guide pour aider les employeurs à comprendre la violence familiale
Un guide de 20 pages a récemment été publié dans le but d'aider les employeurs à soutenir les employés aux prises avec des problèmes de violence familiale. Bien que le guide ait été publié par le gouvernement de l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard, il devrait s'avérer utile pour toutes les provinces canadiennes.
À la lumière des changements apportés à la législation sur l'emploi au Canada, en particulier les nouveaux congés pour les victimes de violence familiale, les employeurs devraient s'assurer de bien connaître et de pleinement comprendre les effets de la violence familiale. Le guide fournit de l'information sur la violence familiale, les signes de violence familiale, les effets sur le milieu de travail ainsi que des lignes directrices à l'intention des superviseurs et des gestionnaires pour soutenir les employés touchés par la violence familiale.
Pour consulter le guide et en savoir plus sur la violence familiale, veuillez visiter notre section Lois sous l'onglet de l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard.
