Psychological harassment policies soon required at workplaces in N.S.

Every workplace will soon have both a physical and psychological harassment policy.

The province says many workplaces had plans to deal with physical violence.

Jobs must outline how to prevent harassment, report complaints, and the investigation process.

The new law takes effect Sept. 1.
