Purpose and Scope
We adopt a victim-centered approach to support employees affected by harassment. The focus is on safety, privacy, informed choice, and dignity. This framework aims to reduce harm and empower affected colleagues to access resources without fear of retaliation.
Support Services Provided
Organizations offer confidential counseling (EAP), advocacy, legal guidance, and access to internal ombudspersons. In addition, accommodations can reduce contact with the alleged harasser while investigations proceed.
Access and Privacy
Requests for support should be straightforward. Provide clear contact points, keep records securely, and share information only with consent and on a need-to-know basis.
Next Steps
Document the support plan, schedule check-ins, and adjust services as the employee’s needs evolve. Review safety measures to ensure ongoing protection.
