Reporting and Non-Retaliation. An employee is encouraged to discuss a workplace concern, including incidences of harassment, abuse, discrimination or unsafe conditions, with management. Each member of management is responsible for creating an atmosphere free of discrimination and harassment, sexual or otherwise. Further, employees are responsible for respecting the rights of their coworkers. If you experience any harassment by fellow employees, supervisors, vendors, clients or others, or believe that you have been treated in an unlawful, discriminatory manner, promptly report the incident to your supervisor, department head, or the Executive Director. This applies to all incidents of alleged harassment, including those which occur off premises, or off hours, where the alleged offender is a supervisor, coworker, or any other person connected with Communitas. There is no need to follow any formal chain of command when filing a complaint, or discussing or expressing any issue or concern regarding alleged discrimination or harassment. The employee may bypass anyone in their direct chain of command and file the complaint or discuss or express any issue of concern with the Executive Director at any time. The Employer welcomes such discussions because it allows the Employer to maintain a productive and harmonious atmosphere. Employees will not be subject to any adverse employment actions for raising good-faith concerns. The Employer takes all complaints of harassment, abuse, discrimination, or unsafe conditions seriously and will not retaliate against an employee in any way for reporting such a problem in good faith. The Employer is committed to prohibiting retaliation against those who report or participate in an investigation of alleged wrongdoing in the workplace.
