Under Sexual Harassment
Sexual Harassment Policy Guidelines – Part IPermission is hereby granted to modify and use the information in this draft sexual harassment guideline, provided you include reference to the author as shown at the end.We shall take all reasonable steps to see that this sexual harassment policy is followed everyone in our organization who has contact with employees. This prevention plan will include training sessions, ongoing monitoring of the work site and a confidential employee survey to be conducted and evaluated each year. Sexual harassment refers to all types of unwanted sexual attention. Sexual harassment does not mean occasional compliments of a socially acceptable nature. Sexual harassment refers to conduct which is offensive to the individual, which harms morale, and which interferes with the accomplishment of our organization mission. This includes pressure to provide sexual favors, and offensive, intimidating comments or actions concerning one’s gender or sexual orientation. Four basic types of sexual harassment:1. Verbal harassment: Sexually suggestive comments, e.g., about a person’s clothing, body, and/or sexual activities; sexually provocative compliments about a person’s clothes or the way their clothes fit; comments of a sexual nature about weight, body shape, size, or figure; comments or questions about the sensuality of a person, or his/her spouse or significant other; repeated unsolicited propositions for dates and/or sexual intercourse; pseudo-medical advice such as “you might be feeling bad because you didn’t get enough” or “A little Tender Loving Care (TLC) will cure your ailments”; continuous idle chatter of a sexual nature and graphic sexual descriptions; telephone calls of a sexual nature; derogatory comments or slurs; verbal abuse or threats; sexual jokes; suggestive or insulting sounds such as whistling, wolf-calls, or kissing sounds; homophobic insults.2. Physical harassment: Sexual gestures, e.g., licking lips or teeth, holding or eating food provocatively, and lewd gestures such as hand or sign language to denote sexual activity; sexual looks such as leering and ogling with suggestive overtones; sexual innuendoes; cornering, impeding or blocking movement, or any physical interference with normal work or movement; touching that is inappropriate in the workplace such as patting, pinching, stroking, or brushing up against the body, mauling, attempted or actual kissing or fondling; assault, coerced sexual intercourse, attempted rape or rape.3. Visual harassment: Showing and distributing derogatory or pornographic posters, cartoons, drawings, books or magazines. 4. Sexual favors: Persistent pressure for dates, unwanted sexual advances that condition an employment benefit upon an exchange of sexual favors.It is not permissible to suggest, threaten or imply that failure to accept a request for a date or sexual intimacy will affect an employee’s job prospects. For example, it is forbidden either to imply or actually withhold support for an appointment, promotion or change of assignment or suggest that a poor performance report will be given because an employee has declined a personal proposition. Also, offering benefits such as promotions, favorable performance evaluations, favorable assigned duties or shifts, recommendations or reclassifications in exchange for sexual favors is forbidden. Any employee found to have violated this policy shall be subject to appropriate disciplinary action according to the findings of the complaint investigation. If an investigation reveals that sexual harassment has occurred, the harasser may also be held legally liable for his or her actions under provincial and federal law. Anyone making a false claim of sexual harassment will also be subject to disciplinary action.Any employee bringing a sexual harassment complaint or assisting in investigating such a complaint will not be adversely affected in terms and conditions of employment, or discriminated against or discharge because of the compliant. Complaints of such retaliation will be promptly and thoroughly investigated.Sexual harassment can occur in any situation, but is especially common in situations where there is a power imbalance between the perpetrator and the victim, due to gender, race, sexual orientation, status or rank differences. Sexual harassment, however, can also occur between peers. Both women and men can be victims of sexual harassment, although it is most common for women to be harassed by men. Sexual harassment also occurs between members of the same sex. Sexual harassment differs from healthy sexual attraction because it is unwelcome and unsolicited. Sexual conduct becomes unlawful only when it is unwelcome. The challenged conduct must be unwelcome in the sense that the employee did not solicit or incite it, and in the sense that the employee regarded the conduct as undesirable or offensive. NOTE: An employee who was previously involved in a mutual consenting intimate relationship with another person maintains his or her entitlement to protection from sexual harassment, but s/he should inform the other party that any further sexual advances are unwelcome. Sexual harassment degrades all persons and creates a hostile work environment. It is extremely costly for employers as well as damaging to employees. The effects of sexual harassment on the complainant may include loss of self-confidence and self-esteem, physical symptoms of stress, diminished work productivity, and low morale.To fight sexual harassment, remember four tactics: confront, report, document, and support. CONFRONT the harasser. Say No Clearly. Inform the harasser that their attentions are unwanted. Make clear you find the behavior offensive. If it persists, write a memo to the harasser asking them to stop; keep a copy. REPORT the problem immediately, verbally and/or in writing directly to your supervisor, or to the supervisor of the accused, and to your union steward. Our door is always open and anyone who has been harassed or thinks harassment is occurring, can seek our confidential advice. We will speak with the accused at your request and inform them about illegal conduct and its consequences. We have a zero-tolerance policy for sexual harassment. If the incident is confirmed, the offending employee faces the following possible sanctions: verbal or written reprimand, negative evaluation, denial of promotion, poor recommendations, suspension, demotion, forced resignation, and termination. We will make every effort to create an atmosphere of comfort for recipients of sexual harassment to request assistance in the resolution of complaints, but at the same time we will also protect the rights of the accused until proven guilty. Note: A single sexual advance, unless severe, may not constitute harassment unless it is linked to the granting or denial of employment or employment benefits. The unwelcome, intentional touching of a person’s intimate body areas is sufficiently offensive to be considered severe, and even a single incident can be considered as harassment. Asking someone for a date is not considered severe. But a repetitive series of non-severe incidents will be considered harassment if the offender was told to stop. It is important for the victim to communicate that the conduct is unwelcome, particularly when the alleged harasser may have some reason to believe that the advance may be welcomed such as a previous consenting relationship.SEXUAL POLLUTIONThere are some acts perceived by the recipient to have a “sexual nature” that are offensive and annoying, but may not be sexual harassment. These offensive behaviors in the workplace pollute the working environment. Therefore, these acts have been labeled sexual pollution. Sexual pollution has the potential of becoming a sexually harassing act. It is an offensive act and should be considered improper. Examples of sexual pollution are: continuous “pet” name calling, such as “baby,” “sweetie, “or ” honey”; referring to an individual as a “hunk,” “fox,” or “broad”; referring to men in general as “dogs,” “swine,” or to women as “bitches,” “wenches, ” or “chicks”; remarks of a sexual nature, open displays of written and pictorial erotica, or nude photographs or posters (such as a nude magazine centerfold) in the workplace, and continuous gift giving with the intention of getting sexual favors in return.A single act of sexual pollution by itself may not constitute sexual harassment. However, continuous acts with the appearance of a sexual nature probably would be. The “reasonable person” standard will be used to determine if it is or not.DOCUMENT the harassment. While the incident is still fresh in your mind, write down what happened, where, when, and how you responded, if possible, word for word. Include the names of witnesses, if any. Keep notes in a journal or notebook to show a continuous record. Send a dated, certified, return-receipt letter to the harasser, asking that the harassment stop, and keep a copy for yourself. Use your telephone answering machine to tape phone calls from the harasser, and save phone messages that are left for you. Keep the records in a safe place, away from work. Documentation will be essential if you must defend yourself in court or before an administrative hearing panel. Document your work. Keep copies of performance evaluations and memos that attest to the quality of your work. The harasser may question your job performance in order to justify his behavior. SEEK SUPPORT from others. Talk to a friend, colleague, or relative, an organized group, or counselor, and your supervisor or someone in personnel that you trust. Not only will you benefit, you may learn of others who have had similar experiences who can offer strategies for dealing with the harassment and support. Look for witnesses and other victims. You may not be the first person who has been mistreated by this individual. Ask around discretely; you may find others who will support your charge. Two accusations are much harder to ignore. Get the union steward involved right away.REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO VICTIMS OF SEXUAL HARASSMENTIf you have been discriminated against on the basis of sex, you are entitled to a remedy that will place you in the position you would have been in if the discrimination had never occurred. You may be entitled to hiring, promotion, reinstatement, back pay and other remuneration. You may also be entitled to damages to compensate you for future pecuniary losses, mental anguish and inconvenience. Punitive damages may be available, as well, if an employer acted with malice or reckless indifference. You may also be entitled to attorney’s fees.ARE YOU THE HARASSER?Those accused of sexual harassment are often surprised to learn how their behavior is perceived by those who feel victimized by such behavior. • Review your attitudes and actions toward others. Examine how others respond to what you do and say. Is your behavior sex-neutral and bias-free?• Imagine yourself a victim of unwelcome sexual attention by someone having control over your career or livelihood. • Consider the impact you have on other’s attitudes toward their work and self-esteem. • Do not assume that your colleagues, peers or employees enjoy sexually oriented comments about their appearance, or being touched or stared at. • Do not assume that others will tell you if they are offended or harassed by what you say or do. • Be aware of other’s feelings and responses to sexual harassment. Could your behavior cause others to experience the vulnerability, powerlessness, and anger described by victims?Permission is hereby granted for you to modify and use the information in this article provided that you include a reference as follows: Original document created by Al Link (4 Freedoms Relationship Tantra)

Under Disability Law
In today’s society, disability is equated to being an illness. Although individuals with disabilities tend to face discrimination in society, the Canadian government acknowledges the importance of shifting away from the “stigma” and the biomedical approach when discussing disability. Their goal is to provide individuals with disabilities with independent living, social inclusion, control and social support. In order to achieve these goals, many changes needed to be made.
Over the years, the issue of gender discrimination has been frequently addressed by the government and policy makers. As a result, new laws and policies have been established in order to try and reach equality. In today’s society, however, although policies have been established, gender discrimination still exists. On the other hand, double discrimination faced by women with disabilities is not being addressed. People tend to discuss gender differences but it is not very often related to disability. It is almost as if society is not aware of the stigma that is associated with disability which is created by society. Women in general have not reached equality in the labour force and women with disabilities have not been given justice.
The focus on “normality” and narrow standards of beauty make it more difficult for women with disabilities to be recognized and included in society. It is believed that “normal” means not to be different from those who are in the able-bodied majority. This includes having a specific body type and face, looking young, as well as being an able-bodied individual. Society fears difference therefore it is referred to as “not normal”. Society also tends to pity those who are different and establishes various assumptions regarding the capabilities of those with disabilities. Pressure from society creates barriers and exclusion for women with disabilities. Women with disabilities should be looked at the same way as everyone else; there is no difference. They should be considered based on their capabilities and not assumptions that are created by others. Women with disabilities are capable of contributing to society if given the opportunity. Society fails to see the full potential of those with disabilities out of fear and thereby excludes them. Denying women with disabilities this opportunity is similar to trying to hide them. Individuals with disabilities should be integrated into society rather than trying to segregate them.
Independence and participation are the key concepts in today’s society. In order to be independent and able to survive, one needs to be employed or have some form of financial support. Employment in turn provides an income that is necessary for survival but also a sense of belonging because of the ability of giving back to society. Every individual strives towards independence but it is difficult to achieve it especially for women with disabilities. Women with disabilities are more likely to be employed in low-status or lower paid jobs. This in itself has an influence on achieving independence.
Employment means connecting with other people outside of home. Being employed allows individuals with disabilities to socialize and meet new people. Having people around enhances the quality of life of individuals. Many of those women with disabilities who are employed find that being employed engenders a sense of belonging, which has a positive influence on their self-esteem. In general, being employed opens a door to many opportunities. It is especially true for women with disabilities.
Although North America has rules and regulations in regards to employment of individuals with disabilities, clearly it is not enough. The unfortunate part is that most of these women do not speak up and if and when they do, they are ignored. In order to implement specific policies and regulations in regards to breaking down barriers for women with disabilities, these women themselves have to be involved as advocates if they have proper supports. What is problematic though, is that most women with disabilities are excluded when it comes to decision making. Over the years women have fought hard to be recognized in society and therefore at the present time it is hard to envision when women would be included when it comes to policy making. It is necessary to move towards the time when it will be hard to imagine not including women with disabilities when it comes to policy making.
Lack of accommodations and knowledge are two main components to exclusion and isolation from the labour force. Some of the employers are not aware of the importance of accommodating employees with disabilities. Lack of knowledge about disability and the stigma that is affiliated with it contributes to employment barriers. Having a law such as the ‘duty to accommodate’ demonstrates that efforts are being made and Canada is shifting towards becoming an equal opportunity type country. It was only 15 years ago when employers were not legally expected to ensure that individuals with disabilities were accommodated in their workplace. Having a law such as the ‘duty to accommodate’ can ensure that women with disabilities do not face direct or adverse effect types of discrimination. However, in many cases, most women with disabilities have faced direct discrimination.
Although the ‘duty to accommodate’ ensures that individuals with disabilities are provided with employment that meets their capabilities, it does not necessarily mean that the attitudes of others will go away. When it comes to the workplace, many employers disregard these policies. Thus, the issue that needs to be fully examined is why do employers disregard legislation and what needs to be done to ensure that employers understand the importance of such laws? This is the issue that still needs to be carefully examined in order to fully eliminate discrimination.

DICSCRIMINATON AND RELATED RIGHTS IN THE WORKPLACE(Based on author’s site www.geocities.com/rcsxp)
Equal opportunities workplace discrimination in sex discrimination cover sexual orientation, same-sex prejudice, adoption, paternity, maternity, parental, dependant leave, marital status, equal pay; race relations employment discrimination ethnic relations, religious discrimination, nationality, citizenship; discriminatory practices, disability discrimination.
Sex equality, race relations, disability work rights in employment discrimination laws are:-A. It is employment discrimination contrary to nondiscrimination policy, unlawful prejudice, to treat employees e.g. working women, colored, foreign workers less favorably than others ~this is the basis of equal opportunities, nondiscrimination laws, in workplace discrimination, be it gender equality, racial equality, disability rights in employment -applying employment discrimination rights is illegal.B. It is illegal workplace victimization to penalize one for complaining or inquiring about or doing anything in good faith in relation to employment discrimination -be it about discriminatory practices of e.g. gender prejudice or sexual orientation or ethnic relations, even if there has not been, and even if the employer retaliation is not itself employment discrimination ~causing detriment after employment ends also is employment discrimination.
Important details of employment discrimination are:-Equal Opportunities are not minority rights, or women’s rights only ~it is equally illegal employment discrimination for e.g. black or women employers to subject to racial inequality or gender discrimination or sexual harassment a white an employee -in ethnic relations it is employment discrimination whether the employer belongs to a dominant majority group or a minority group.Lawful prejudice is possible: in employment discrimination, whether it is race relations, ethnic relations, or sex equality, employers are entitled to employment discrimination in recruitment by preferring a particular racial or ethnic or gender or sexual orientation class to ensure fair gender equality or racial equality respecting nondiscrimination policy ~non-employment of the disabled is legal employment discrimination if workers are less than 20 -or if a legal musts, e.g. safety helmet for Sigh bike messenger.Segregation, racial or ethnic, is not unlawful employment discrimination if genuinely otherwise it would disrupt ~in gender equality it is not illegal employment discrimination but lawful discriminatory practice to provide separate one-sex facilities to avoid embarrassment -it is also legal employment discrimination if it would offend a sizable faith.
Otherwise racial segregation can make liable in employment discrimination as race discrimination -if it arises from an employment discrimination complaint, additionally, also as employment victimization.Employment victimization if is due to, e.g., gender prejudice, an employment discrimination complaint must have preceded it – Negorajam -v- Agnew, 1994.Workplace harassment, be it sexual, religious or belief, ethnic or racial harassment, is more than employment discrimination -it can be, additionally to employment discrimination, a criminal offence ~also if it is only employment discrimination and on its own not of criminal nature, if persisted in, in employment or after termination.
Sex harassment or racist abuse by a colleague is not workplace harassment as employment discrimination if not in course of or at place of work nor related to work -action lies in equal opportunities but not as employment discrimination.
Workplace harassment, e.g., sexual harassment, is required in employment discrimination case-law to be shown to have adversely affected one’s dignity – Porcelli -v- Stratchlyde Rural District Council, 1980.Religious or Belief Discrimination it is in equal opportunities and employment discrimination, because of one’s religion or belief, to apply a condition on the assumption that a law would not be respected -e.g. an undertaking that Sigh builders would wear helmets at all times, or that a Sigh judge would wear instead of his turban the wig worn in British courts of law. Degrading treatment (which the above would also be) in employment discrimination under the race relations legislation (racial victimization -or religious, ethnic, color, nationality, citizenship) takes into account what the complainant considers to be degrading.Age Discrimination may also be complained of, if employee or candidate may is refused employment because of his or her age, or in employment if is less favourably treated or subjected to victimization. Disability discrimination while it is, in employment discrimination legislation, to not provide some 30% disability work for disabled employees in a workforce of 20 or more -with appropriate work and equipment and workplace adjustments, disability discrimination is subject to employment discrimination precedent and the courts may regard an employer’s failure in special interviewing arrangements not a discriminatory practice amounting to employment discrimination but failure of the disabled job applicant, even if the special arrangements need was stated on the application and details were never asked, if disabled persons fail to specify them .
Disability discrimination is legal if the workforce is less than 15 ~also if of indirect effect on disabled workers -it is employment discrimination only if it affects directly.
Disabilities do not entitle to equal rights or disability rights in disability employment discrimination unless for a year seriously disabled in ordinary daily activities -else it is not employment discrimination.Genuine occupational qualification excuses employment discrimination -in equal opportunities employment rights it is a genuine occupational qualification is one that does not unjustly disqualify an entire class of, e.g., female workers or married women employees, or staff transsexual or of a different sexual orientation, or alien workers ~in employment discrimination such proof is on the employer in sex or race discrimination claims – Panesaar -v- Nestle 1980.Grading of employees vulnerable to employment discrimination -e.g. of working women or black or immigrant workers, may be complained of as employment discrimination ~employer must show that were not taken into account personal factors, e.g. a working woman likely to take maternity leave or a single parent working girl, in assessing – National Vulcan Engineering -v- Wade, 1977.Maternity leave, paternity or parental or adoption or dependant leave, in employment discrimination laws are for all -married, partner, or neither ~if it is agreed contractually, employment discrimination laws forbid employers to prefer the contractual or the statutory entitlement -in equal opportunities applicable to employment discrimination employees choose which.Comparison must be made if one is directly subjected to employment discrimination to show that employment discrimination to have been by way of less favorable treatment of the complainant than other workers – Aziz -v- Trinity Taxis, 1998.Less favorable treatment complained of as employment discrimination must have taken place at the workplace or must be in relation to employment, otherwise it is not employment discrimination ~in ethnic relations, e.g., employer’s excluding from a house-warming party is not equal opportunities race equality breach of nondiscrimination policy -but it is employment discrimination if from a workers’ office party – Walters -v- Metropolitan Police, 1997.Equal pay if the employment discrimination has been in respect of, it is inessential for comparison to be of identical work -in employment discrimination precedent similar work suffices, e.g., a single working girl’s work and a married working woman’s like work – Hayward -v- Canwell Laird Shipyards, 1977.Internal Appeal offer in employment discrimination must precede worker’s dismissal, if made – James -v- Waltham Holy Cross Urban District Council, 1973.Claims for employment discrimination or, e.g., sexual harassment or color victimization must allege so -if the worker only claims only unfair dismissal the qualifying period may bar an, e.g., race equality employment discrimination case exempt from the qualifying period requirements – British Airways Engine Overhaul -v- Francis, 1981.Qualifying period for suing does not apply to employment discrimination and workplace harassment -no particular length of service need be shown to sue for employment discrimination ~also so in equal opportunities workplace victimization.Time limit does apply -in employment discrimination legal proceedings must be commenced within three months of the equal opportunities breach or of when the employment discrimination, or the employment discrimination victimization, became known – Cornelius -v- University College -Swansea 1987.Questionnaires are part of equal opportunities claims in employment discrimination whether sex discrimination, color prejudice, workplace harassment, or employment victimization ~one may serve one on the employer and use answers or non-reply in arguing employment discrimination.Amendments may be allowed by employment tribunals to employment discrimination complaints, only if are about a matter included in the in employment discrimination particulars – Swiss Life & Health Insurance -v- Kay, 2004.Additional claims based on same employment discrimination also so – Ashworth Hospital -v- Liebling, 1996.Onus of proof in employment discrimination is the complainant’s on a balance of probabilities ~regard to employer’s reasons for the alleged employment discrimination can reverse that – Humphrey’s -v- Board of Management of St. George’s School, 1978.
The European Court of Justice has ruled in employment discrimination cases that there is no limit on what may be awarded for injury to feelings in claims arising from workplace discrimination.
Costs may be involved if a party, including the complainant, has been vexatious, frivolous, or “otherwise unreasonable” –normally, in the course of or in relation to the proceedings.
