    Always treat one another with dignity and respect.

  • Avoid

    Avoid saying or doing anything that others may find offensive, degrading or threatening.

  • Listen

    Listen to the points of view of others with courtesy and respect.

  • Look

  • Report

    Report any suspected harassment to a manager, Human Resources, or the Hotline.

What exactly does harrassment look like?

It can be what we say or write (to one another in person or on social media), including racial, ethnic, or gender-based slurs, jokes, or stereotypes or using threatening, loud, or abusive language.

It can be what we do, such as unwelcome touching, making sexual advances, or blocking someone’s path

It can be what we display, such as placing pornographic or sexually suggestive materials in an office cubicle or potentially offensive slogans, posters, or bumper stickers on Company property.

Food for Thought

When it comes to harassment, the question isn’t what we mean or intend by our words or actions, but how others might perceive them.

Know the Code

When I walked down the hall today, I overheard a manager yelling at my colleague. The colleague didn’t say anything and when I asked him about it later he said he was fine. I heard the manager make a racial slur during the exchange. Is there anything I should do?

Yes, please reach out to Human Resources, the Hotline, or your manager (assuming it’s not the same manager you are describing). This behavior is not acceptable and violates our Code as we believe everyone is entitled to be treated with dignity and respect in a supportive environment.
