26 EMPLOYER RESPONSIBILITY MITIGATING RISK MERCER MERCER
27 RESPONDING TO COMPLAINTS Respond immediately Take the complaint seriously Assess the complaint fairly and impartially Don t promise confidentiality Be supportive and try to put the victim at ease Show empathy and respect Get as much specific information as possible Document the conversation Assure the employee there will be no retaliation MERCER
28 STEPS FOLLOWING A COMPLAINT All complaints must be taken seriously, but not every complaint requires a full-scale investigation Determine whether the incident requires investigation Is there a simple answer or is it a complex issue? Does it involve just one employee, or are others affected? Is there a pattern of inappropriate behavior, or was it a single incident? Was the employee able to provide enough details for you to determine a resolution? MERCER
29 EMPLOYEE AND COMPANY RESPONSIBILITY Have zero tolerance for harassment and discrimination - if you see something, say something If you are not certain that what you witnessed is abusive conduct, bring it to someone s attention o Speak with the perpetrator o Share the information with a supervisor o Let HR know there may be a problem Human Resources must take harassment complaints seriously and conduct an investigation MERCER
30 WHEN TO INVESTIGATE The employer knows or should know of violations An employee or the employee s supervisor raises a concern to someone in authority while at the same time stating that they are not complaining In response to noted changes in the workplace such as decreased morale, productivity or attendance MERCER

32 DISCIPLINING PERPETRATORS Perpetrator acknowledgement Administrative leave No discussion with the victim Perpetrator training Follow up MERCER
33 DISCIPLINING PERPETRATORS, CONTINUED Don t discuss the details of the disciplinary action with the victim Do assure the victim that action has been taken Let the victim know that any repeat of the offense will result in discipline that is more severe If the perpetrator supervises the victim, consider whether the reporting relationship will remain o If this course of action is followed, ensure it is not, or not perceived as, retaliation toward the victim MERCER
34 RETALIATION Retaliation is any adverse action taken against an employee because he or she complained of harassment or discrimination Retaliation is prohibited by anti-discrimination laws In the event there is retaliation against the victim, the victim may file a charge of retaliation Adverse action may include demotion, discipline, termination, salary reduction, a negative performance review, a change in job duties or shift MERCER
35 TRAINING A valid defense requires the employer show they have provided periodic training to supervisors If no tangible negative employment action, the employer may raise an affirmative defense by proving o It exercises reasonable care and promptly corrects the harassment; and o The employee unreasonably failed to report the harassment or otherwise avoid harm MERCER
36 MINIMIZE LEGAL EXPOSURE Proactive steps Have a written policy Define and communicate clear complaint procedures Require periodic manager training Train all employees to ensure they understand their rights and responsibilities Have zero tolerance for retaliation MERCER
37 MINIMIZE LEGAL EXPOSURE, CONTINUED Responding to an incident Fair treatment Timely response Maintain confidentiality Investigate Respect the victim Make judgments based on facts MERCER
38 SUMMARY Sexual harassment is a crime Have a clear policy and ensure that managers and employees are familiar with their rights and responsibilities Training is critical, and in some cases, legally required Let managers and employees know that sexual harassment will not be tolerated Be available to respond to any reports of sexual harassment and take appropriate action MERCER
