Supervisor’s Responsibilities. Supervisors are responsible for enforcing the Authority’s harassment prevention policy. Supervisors must ensure that all employees are aware of the Authority's policy through open discussion of the policy at staff meetings and by posting the policy in a conspicuous location accessible to all staff members.

Supervisors who receive complaints or who observe conduct prohibited by this policy shall inform the employee to cease the conduct immediately and advise the Executive Director. The Authority will take disciplinary action, up to and including termination, against any supervisor who fails in his/her responsibility to take immediate action in response to an employee’s complaint of harassment or to stop harassing conduct committed in his/her presence or to stop harassing conduct about which the supervisor has knowledge. The Authority does not consider conduct in violation of this policy to be within the course and scope of employment and does not sanction such conduct on the part of any employee, including supervisory and management employees.
