Remedies and Remedial Actions
This lesson covers the range of remedies following an investigation and how to implement actions that restore safety and prevent recurrence.
Possible Remedies
Remedies may include disciplinary action against the harasser, mandatory training, policy updates, or changes in reporting procedures. The aim is to stop the behavior and prevent recurrence.
Restoring a Safe Work Environment
Remedies focus on restoring safety and trust. This can involve reassignment, increased supervision, or facilitator-led conflict resolution, while protecting privacy.
Communication and Transparency
Communicate outcomes as appropriate to the complainant and involved parties, balancing privacy with accountability. Remedial actions should be documented and reviewed for effectiveness.
Preventive Measures
Use findings to improve training, update policies, and reinforce expectations. Regularly review processes to strengthen prevention and include bystander education where possible.
