| dc.description.abstract | In 2013, the Government of Yukon established the Respectful Workplace Office (RWO) to provide conflict management for Yukon public service employees. The RWO is responsible for implementing the Respectful Workplace Policy and advocates for approaches to conflict based on principles of interest-based conflict resolution. Both the RWO and Government of Yukon Human Resources have important roles to play in the collaborative governance process set out under the RWO Policy. The overall success of the Policy depends on consistent uptake across all parts of government and collaborative relationships between numerous stakeholders. This project explores the impacts of differing approaches to handling conflict and the health and well-being of employees. The purpose of this research is to determine how Government of Yukon Human Resources and the RWO can work together in a more coordinated way to address workplace conflict, harassment and disrespectful conduct in the Government of Yukon. The research outcomes of this project explore how conflict management mechanisms in public service organizations interact with human resources management and provide recommendations that help the RWO to better align conflict management strategies to benefit all employees. | en_US |
