This podcast – the second of a two-part series— discusses harassment in the workplace. Building on the earlier discussion of employer and employee obligations, presenters Patrick Essiminy and Camille Foczeny turn their attention to the investigation process. Key points include the importance of having a clear complaint process, conducting investigations, and taking immediate action to address harassment. The episode also highlights mental health impacts, the need for interim measures during investigations and the protocols that should govern the process, including with respect to confidentiality. And although focused on Québec, the advice provided on handling harassment complaints is applicable nationwide.
