Sexual Harassment

Sexual harassment, according to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, is an act of sexual discrimination that violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Although the law recognizes two forms of sexual harassment, quid pro quo and a hostile work environment, the definition is not easily explainable for what it truly is. Quid pro quo is the "bargained-for sexual harassment" (HRS). This definition covers sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and anything …

…necessary to carry out the investigation or take other subsequent necessary action. Any employee who engages or participates in sexual harassment, or who aids, abets, incites, compels or coerces another to commit sexual harassment against a employee, job applicant, is in violation of this policy and is subject to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. This policy is set for all Management and Classified employees. Employee signature: ___________________________________________ Reference: Dessler Human Resource Management 10th Edition
