It should be made clear to the person committing the act that the attention or
offensive behaviour is unwelcome. It may be that the individual is unaware
that the behaviour is offensive. This can be done either on your own, verbally or in writing, or with the assistance of a third party. In the case of a third
party making a complaint, there must be agreement from the person being
harassed, that such a complaint be put forward.
If the above action does not resolve the complaint, approach one of the designated representatives and ask him or her to act on your behalf.
Harassment occurs when a comment or action has been made that is known
or ought reasonably to be known to be unwelcome. It makes someone else
feel uncomfortable or at risk, and can occur on a single or repeated basis.
The Party considers harassment of any kind a serious offence. Complaints
of harassment at activities of the Party will be investigated by representatives designated for each activity. A substantiated complaint will result in the
removal of the harasser from the event. A letter outlining the reasons for the
removal will also be sent to the appropriate delegating body. In every case of
complaint, whether substantiated or not, confidentiality of all parties involved
must be respected.
The written complaint will then be submitted to the Provincial Secretary and
designated representatives. The complaint will be evaluated and investigated. If it is determined that the respondents conduct has fallen with the definition of harassment, appropriate action will be taken which might include,
but is not limited to, an apology, reprimand or expulsion.
Any appeals to the final decision would be conducted in accordance with
commonly accepted Party practice, with the proviso that the confidentiality of
all parties would be respected.
