Duties of Employees/Supervisors
All employees of VC – faculty, staff and administration – are responsible for assuring that a workplace free of harassment is maintained. Any employee may file a complaint regarding incidents experienced personally or incidents observed in the workplace. VC strives to maintain a lawful, pleasant work environment where all employees are able to effectively perform their work without interference of any type and expects the assistance of all employees in this effort.
VC supervisors and administrators are expected to adhere to the anti-harassment policy.
All administrators, directors, and supervisors are responsible for doing all they reasonably can to prevent and discourage harassment from occurring. If a complaint is raised, supervisors and directors are to act promptly to notify the Human Resource Department of the complaint so that Vernon College may proceed with an investigation.
If a supervisor or director fails to follow this policy he/she will be disciplined as circumstances dictate. Such discipline may include termination.
