If you are the target of harassment because of your sexual orientation, you can use the Policy to make a formal complaint. As a result, you may think about leaving your job. A supervisor promises you a promotion in return for sexual favours and implies that you might get bad job evaluations or be fired if you refuse. Carefully document the dates, times, locations, witnesses and details of all incidents. Complaints are made through the Sexual Harassment Officer.
Complete confidentiality is assured to both parties.
These may include arranging to have someone else assess your performance, delaying your performance assessment and backdating any merit pay, or reassigning you temporarily to other work. Even if you are beyond the six month time limit, come and talk to the Sexual Harassment Officer about the situation. There are a number of effective ways to put an end to harassment. Both parties take part in individual counselling with the Sexual Harassment Officer in an attempt to reach a resolution. Most complaints are resolved at this stage.
