Corporate Policies:
Sexual Harassment

It is the policy of Lifespan to provide a positive discrimination-free work environment for all employees. Sexual harassment is unlawful, discriminatory, and unacceptable conduct, which will not be tolerated in the workplace, during the course of employment, and at all Lifespan-sponsored events.

Sexual harassment in the workplace is a form of sex discrimination prohibited by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Guidelines require employees to affirmatively address the issue of sexual harassment and to adopt procedures for the prompt resolution of employee complaints.

  • All members of the Lifespan organization share responsibility for avoiding, discouraging, and reporting any form of sexual harassment.

  • Lifespan will take prompt preventative, investigatory and/or, corrective action when a complaint of sexual harassment is made.

  • Sexual harassment by a non-employee is also subject to review and action by management.

  • Members of the Lifespan organization found in violation of this policy may be disciplined, up to and including being discharged for cause.
