12 The Effects of Sexual Harassment

13 What Should You Do If Sexual Harassment Occurs? Condensed from the ICC Staff and Faculty Handbook: Report the incident to their immediate supervisor. The initiation of a report shall not affect the employee’s status, compensation, or work assignment. All reports of harassment shall be maintained in strict confidentiality. Immediate supervisors must report any harassment incident to Human Resources. If the harassment received by the employee is believed to be from the immediate supervisor, the initial report will go to Human Resources and the President. Human Resources will initiate a confidential finding of fact upon receipt of a harassment report. If Human Resources determines action in response to harassment based on fact finding, the recommendation should be sent to the appropriate supervisor or the President if the supervisor is involved. Opportunity for appeal is provided in the Employee Grievance Procedures.

14 Reporting a Harassment Claim to Your Supervisor or ICC’s HR Department When? Date and time of the incident Where? Location where the incident took place Who?
