SUMMARY:Workplace Investigations - Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Workplace Investigations\nWhile  we  are planning an in-person Workplace Investigations training in St. John’s in the spring\, we wanted to offer this virtual option for those who are spread out across the province.  \n\n\n\n\nProgram Overview\nWhen a workplace crisis hits and an investigation is required\, are you truly prepared to handle it? \nThis is a practical one-day program that equips HR professionals with the tools\, templates\, and techniques to conduct effective workplace investigations.  \nPaying high hourly legal fees heavily strains your company’s budget and often leaves you no further ahead. But what if you could confidently conduct an objective investigation on your own? \nThis intensive\, one day virtual program delivers the foundational tools\, templates\, and frameworks you need to navigate any file\, from the initial complaint to a clear\, defensible final report\, with confidence. \nDeveloped specifically for HR professionals\, executives\, and institutional leaders\, this fast-paced session focuses entirely on practical\, hands-on execution. Participants will learn how to screen and triage complaints\, plan their investigative scope to protect evidence\, conduct effective interviews\, weigh conflicting credibility using established Canadian standards\, and review the landmark court cases and arbitration decisions that define an employer’s legal duty to investigate. \n\n\n\n\nWhat’s Included:\n\nEvery participant receives a digital copy of the Investigator’s Toolkit\, which serves as an operational blueprint for future files. The entire package includes hands-on training exercises\, template notification letters to parties\, a complete sample investigation report\, and direct links to important Canadian case law. \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Facilitator\n\n \nDevan Corrigan\nDevan Corrigan has led investigations for organizations including Resolute Forest Products\, Canadian Pacific Railway\, Canada Post\, and Glencore Canada. He holds an M.I.R. from Queen’s University\, an Honours degree in Psychology\, and HR certification from Saint Mary’s University. Devan is an active member of the Association of Workplace Investigators and is the lead facilitator for the Mastering Fact-Finding & Investigation program at Queen’s IRC. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPricing  \n\nMembers $1\,500+HST (Check the bi-weekly newsletter for discount code)\nNon‑Members $1\,950+HST\n\n\n\n \n\n\n  \n  \n\n

SUMMARY:Webinar: Navigating Workplace Accommodations: Practical Guidance for HR Professionals
DESCRIPTION:CPHR CPD: 1.5 Online Webinar\n\n  \n\n\nProgram Overview\n\n\nDescription\nWorkplace accommodation is one of the most complex challenges facing HR professionals today. HR teams are being asked to balance legal obligations\, operational realities\, and the growing expectations of external bodies such as workers compensation boards\, often with little clear guidance\, particularly around an employee’s duty to cooperate. \nAt the same time\, managers are increasingly navigating complex mental health-related accommodations. This interactive hybrid presentation moves beyond a high-level legal overview and will provide guidance on the analytical framework to address these complex issues. \nLed by Rick Dunlop\, an employment and labour lawyer at Stewart McKelvey\, the session will work through a series of real-life hypothetical scenarios drawn from situations HR professionals actually encounter. Each scenario will be discussed and worked through live with the audience\, giving attendees a practical framework for handling similar situations with confidence. \n\n\nLearning Outcomes\nReal-life hypothetical scenarios that will be discussed and worked through live during the session\, with opportunities for attendees to share perspectives and ask questions\, illustrating how these issues play out in practice and will provide you with guidance on establishing an analytical framework that will assist you in addressing the following: \n\nHow to make safe and legally sound accommodation decisions in real time\, even when the situation is not straightforward\nWhere the duty to accommodate ends\, and what “undue hardship” means in practice\nWhat the employee’s duty to cooperate actually requires\, and how to rely on it appropriately\nHow to communicate clearly with employees\, set expectations\, and document decisions along the way\nWhat you can (and should) push back on\, and how to do so without exposing the organization to risk\nHow to translate accommodation policy into practical steps that managers can apply on the ground\nHow to manage WCB-related expectations alongside other accommodation obligations\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Facilitator\n\n \nRick Dunlop \nRick Dunlop is a Partner at Stewart McKelvey\, one of Atlantic Canada’s leading law firms. Rick practices in employment and labour law\, advising employers on a wide range of workplace matters\, including human rights obligations\, accommodation\, and workplace investigations. He brings a practical\, client-focused approach to complex legal issues and is a sought-after speaker on employment law topics. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPricing\n\nMembers$25\nNon-Members$55\n \n\n\n\n\n
