Harassment The Employer and the Union recognize the right of employees to work in an environment free from harassment, including sexual harassment, as defined by the Employer’s harassment policy.
No Harassment Contractor does not engage in unlawful harassment, including sexual harassment, with respect to any persons with whom Contractor may interact in the performance of this Agreement, and Contractor takes all reasonable steps to prevent harassment from occurring.
Employee Grievance If an employee considers there has been a significant change to the job content of the position held, the employee may initiate a grievance by using Step 1 of the Grievance Procedure. If the issue is not resolved at this step, the Job Classification Review Procedure of Article 22.02(B) above shall be utilized.
Employee Grievances (a) Grievances on behalf of employees shall be handled as follows:

Furthermore, the Employer shall ensure that the Committee is aware of the relevant legislation and University policies, and the University Librarian or Xxxx and the Members participating in the work of the Committee shall share responsibility for ensuring that the relevant legislation and University policies are followed throughout the deliberations of the Committee. The Committee may call upon the Office of Equity and Human Rights Services for assistance.

NO DISCRIMINATION OR HARASSMENT 14.01 There shall be no discrimination, interference, restriction, coercion, harassment, intimidation or any disciplinary action exercised or practiced with respect to an employee by reason of race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, family status, disability, conviction for which a pardon has been granted, or union affiliation.
14.02 Grievances arising from Article 14.01 shall first be dealt with through an alternate dispute resolution process (ADR) as agreed to by the parties. Once alternate dispute resolution mechanisms are agreed to by the parties, the grievance will be held in abeyance pending the results of the ADR process. Furthermore, employees are precluded from other avenues of redress, save and except applicable legislative procedures, until the ADR process has concluded. The ADR process shall not result in any unreasonable delay.
14.03 Any level in the grievance procedure shall be waived if a person hearing the grievance is the subject of the complaint.
Sexual Harassment CONTRACTOR shall have a Sexual and Gender Identity harassment policy that clearly describes the kinds of conduct that constitutes sexual harassment and that is prohibited by the CONTRACTOR’s policy, as well as federal and state law. The policy should include procedures to make complaints without fear of retaliation, and for prompt and objective investigations of all sexual harassment complaints. CONTRACTOR further agrees to provide annual training to all employees regarding the laws concerning sexual harassment and related procedures pursuant to Government Code 12950.1.
NO DISCRIMINATION/HARASSMENT 4.01 The Employer and the Union agree that there shall be no discrimination, interference, restriction or coercion exercised or practiced with respect to any Employee(s) in the matter of hiring, wage rates, training, upgrading, promotion, transfer, lay- off, recall, discipline, classification, discharge or otherwise by reason of age, race, creed, national origin, religious affiliation, political affiliation, sex, sexual orientation, place of residence, marital status or disability subject to bona fide occupational requirements, family status, colour, ancestry, receipt of public assistance, nor by reason of membership or activity in the Union.
No Illegal Harassment Violation of the City’s harassment policy, which is incorporated by reference and available from the Human Resource Division, by the Contractor, its officers, employees, agents, vendors, consultants, subcontractors and anyone from whom it is legally liable, while performing or failing to perform Contractor’s duties under this Contract shall be considered a material breach of contract.
