Preventing Retaliation

Policies protect reporters and witnesses from retaliation. Report any retaliation promptly through the same channels and ensure prompt investigation and corrective action if needed.

Documenting Outcomes and Case Closure

Close the case with a formal summary of findings, actions taken, and follow-up plans. Store records securely for retention as required by policy and law.

Follow-Up and Monitoring

Schedule follow-up checks to assess the workplace after remedies. Monitor for improvements in behavior, reporting trends, and overall safety and inclusion.

Recordkeeping and Compliance

Maintain documentation in accordance with retention schedules, privacy rules, and audit requirements. Regular reviews help ensure ongoing compliance and accountability.
