[Amended 4-14-2004 by L.L. No. 2-2004]
It is the policy of the Town of Lloyd to provide and maintain a work
environment which is free from unlawful discrimination based on sex (with
or without sexual conduct), race, color, religion, natural origin, sexual
orientation, age, disability and any other class protected by law (collectively
referred to as “discriminatory harassment” or “harassment”).
Harassment based on these characteristics is a form of unlawful discrimination
and is prohibited in each and every work environment and each and every situation
which directly impacts the work environment.
The Town of Lloyd considers discriminatory harassment to be a form of
employee misconduct and considers this type of misconduct to be a serious
offense, which will not be tolerated. Allegations of harassment will be investigated
thoroughly and, if substantiated, will be met with appropriate corrective
and/or disciplinary action commensurate with the seriousness of the offense(s),
and in accordance with the parameters of applicable collective bargaining
agreements and/or state law.
[Amended 4-14-2004 by L.L. No. 2-2004]
The complaint form to be used for employees to file a complaint is that
set forth in the Town of Lloyd Personnel Employee Handbook as Appendix A,
as enacted and amended from time to time by resolution of the Town Board.
