NO DISCRIMINATION/HARASSMENT 6.01 The Company and the Union agree that there shall be no discrimination, interference, restriction or coercion exercised or practised with respect to any employee by reason of age, marital status, sex, race, creed, colour, national origin, political or religious affiliation, handicap, sexual orientation nor by reason of Union membership or position in the Union. Prohibited grounds shall be interpreted in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Human Rights Code. 6.02 The Union and the Company recognize that sexual, racial, and violent harassment is a cruel and destructive behaviour against others that can have devastating effects. (a) Sexual harassment is any unwanted attention of a sexual nature such as remarks about appearance or personal life, offensive written or visual actions like graffiti or degrading pictures, physical contact of any kind, or sexual demands. (b) Racial harassment is any action, whether verbal or physical that expresses or promotes racial hatred in the workplace such as racial slurs, written or visually offensive actions, jokes or other unwanted comments or acts. (c) Violent Harassment includes any form of attempted, threatened, actual conduct or physical force of a person that causes or is likely to cause injury, and includes any threatening statement or behaviour that gives an employee reasonable cause to believe that the employee is at risk of injury. 6.03 Any claims of harassment or discrimination, should be brought to the attention of management, Human Resources and/or any local union elected person or official. Complaints of alleged harassment or discrimination as outlined in .01 by members of the bargaining unit will be handled with all possible confidentiality by a joint committee consisting of the Plant Chairperson and/or his designee and the Human Resource Manager and/or his designee. (a) The investigation will be handled promptly within ten (10) working days from the date the complaint was filed. Investigation will be reviewed by Plant Chairperson and Human Resources Manager for final resolution. If unresolved the complaint may be taken up as a grievance at Step 3. 6.04 Any confirmed allegations of the above harassment(s) may result in discipline up to and including termination. 6.05 This article is not intended to restrict any employee's rights under the Ontario Human Rights Code. 6.06 The parties agree that normal social/business conduct between people does not constitute harassment. 6.07 The pursuit of frivolous allegations of Human Rights violations has a detrimental effect on the spirit and intent for which this policy was rightfully developed and should be discouraged.
