Harassment and Bullying Complaints Sample Clauses

Harassment and Bullying Complaints. ‌ All complaints of harassment or bullying will be thoroughly investigated. A harassment or bullying complaint is not a grievance. The complainant must follow this complaint process. However, the Employer’s application of the complaint process, or any action taken by the Employer as a result of the complaint process, may be grieved, except as per Clause 3.7(j) below. All complaints will be kept confidential by the complainant, the respondent, the Employer, the Union and witnesses. The complainant and the respondent (if they are a member of the Union) will have the right to union representation throughout the complaint process. A complainant may try to informally resolve their complaint with the assistance of a supervisor, manager, shop xxxxxxx, union staff representative or mediator. If the complainant is satisfied with the outcome reached at this point, the complaint is resolved. Until a harassment or bullying complaint is resolved, the Employer may take interim measures, including separating the complainant and respondent. A complainant has the right to file a complaint under the Human Rights Code of British Columbia but is not entitled to duplication of process. The Employer shall take such actions as are necessary respecting an employee who has engaged in harassment or bullying. Where the complaint is determined to be frivolous, vindictive or vexatious nature, the Employer, which are found to be in bad faith shall be cause for discipline, up to and including dismissal. All parties shall hold complaints pursuant to this article in strict confidence. All documentation concerning the complaint and investigation shall be sealed upon conclusion of the process.
