Roll of Bystanders Sample Clauses

Roll of Bystanders. Bystanders can play a vital role in developing and preserving a safe and supportive environment for Employees. When behavior has occurred that could reasonably cause a complaint under the terms of this Policy, bystanders may take it upon themselves to address the behavior before it causes direct harm to an individual. Bystanders can also play a role in reducing harm and providing a means for victims to recover from sexual harassment. Bystanders are encouraged to report any activities overheard or witnessed that they believe has harmed, is harming, or may harm individuals covered by this Policy, including suspected instances of retaliation and instances when the target of the harassment is not present or directly subjected to the harassment. Bystanders are encouraged to serve as allies in work environments, intervening on the spot when they see inappropriate behavior, unless doing so would risk the bystander’s physical safety. The Parties also encourage bystanders to engage with victims of sexual harassment, to assist them in understanding their options for addressing sexual harassment, and the various potential outcomes that may occur through the mechanisms of this Policy. If bystanders do not feel comfortable addressing the behavior directly with the individual engaging in prohibited behavior, they should feel empowered to report the misconduct or encourage the individual adversely affected by the behavior to report the misconduct. Prohibited behavior can occur even in the absence of an aware victim bringing forward a compliant. In such cases, the bystander may determine it necessary to notify an Employer or Policy Administrator of the behavior. Bystanders will be protected from retaliation. This Section is included to generate awareness of bystander responsibilities; it does not mandate bystander actions. Bystanders will not be held accountable before, during, or after investigations if they were witness to prohibited behavior and chose not to come forward with information.

  • CONDITION SUBSEQUENT/NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDING The compensation paid to CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Agreement is based on COUNTY’S continued appropriation of funding for the purpose of this Agreement, as well as the receipt of local, county, state and/or federal funding for this purpose. The parties acknowledge that the nature of government finance is unpredictable, and that the rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement are therefore contingent upon the receipt and/or appropriation of the necessary funds. In the event that funding is terminated, in whole or in part, for any reason, at any time, this Agreement and all obligations of the COUNTY arising from this Agreement shall be immediately discharged. COUNTY agrees to inform CONTRACTOR no later than ten (10) calendar days after the COUNTY determines, in its sole judgment, that funding will be terminated and the final date for which funding will be available. Under these circumstances, all billing or other claims for compensation or reimbursement by CONTRACTOR arising out of performance of this Agreement must be submitted to COUNTY prior to the final date for which funding is available. In the alternative, COUNTY and CONTRACTOR may agree, in such circumstance, to a suspension or modification of either party's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Such a modification, if the parties agree thereto, may permit a restoration of previous contract terms in the event funding is reinstated. Also in the alternative, the COUNTY may, if funding is provided to the COUNTY in the form of promises to pay at a later date, whether referred to as “government warrants,” “IOUs,” or by any other name, the COUNTY may, in its sole discretion, provide similar promises to pay to the CONTRACTOR, which the CONTRACTOR hereby agrees to accept as sufficient payment until cash funding becomes available.
