On May 17, 2024, amendments to the occupational health and safety provisions of the Saskatchewan Employment Act will come into force requiring all provincially regulated workplaces to have a policy statement and prevention plan (PSPP) to eliminate workplace violence.
Previously, only prescribed workplaces in high-risk industries were required to have a PSPP.
And employers should be ready, according to John Agioritis, partner at MLT Aikins in Saskatoon.
