If any of our employees believes that he/she has been subject
to sexual harassment, the employee has the right to file a complaint
with our organization. This may be done in writing or orally to the
Town Administrator.
If you believe you are the victim of sexual harassment, in addition to the right to file a complaint, you may also seek advice from the Town Administrator. He/she is available to discuss any concerns you may have and to provide information to you about our policy on sexual harassment and our complaint process. If you desire, he/she will work with you to find a way of resolving your concerns in an informal manner acceptable to you and in a manner which would offer you as much privacy and confidentiality as is possible. If this option does not resolve the complaint, you may proceed through our complaint procedure set forth in §
140-48 below.
If sexual harassment has been committed by one of our employees,
we will take such action as is appropriate under the circumstances.
Such actions may include counseling, informal or formal reprimands,
written or verbal warnings, suspension, reduction in pay, reduction
in duties, transfers, and other formal sanctions including termination
from employment.
