Discrimination and sexual harassment will not be tolerated. Disciplinary action will follow a violation and will be reflective of the seriousness of the violation. If the investigation establishes that the accused employee engaged in discrimination or sexual harassment, discipline, up to and including removal, will be administered. Offenders will be disciplined without regard to their position or job performance.
All employees of the City have a responsibility to become familiar with this policy, to assist in its enforcement and to abide by its terms. Any employee who has knowledge of sexually harassing conduct, and who allows that conduct to go unaddressed, may be subject to discipline. (Ord. 2007-18. Passed 3-5-07.)
