33 January/February 2020 | THE DAVEY BULLETIN Any employee may be required to cooperate as needed in an investigation of suspected harassment. While the process may vary depending on the specific complaint at issue, Davey Tree will generally interview individuals identified in the complaint or who are found to have information concerning the report of potential harassment. Davey Tree will also request and review all documents relevant to the complaint and investigation. If it is determined that this policy has been violated, Davey Tree will take prompt and appropriate corrective action, up to and including discharge, to stop the inappropriate conduct and prevent its recurrence. In addition to the procedure and remedies available under this policy, employees may also choose to pursue legal remedies with certain governmental entities: (i) the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission; (ii) state fair employment agencies (including, but not limited to, the New York State Division of Human Rights and the Ohio Civil Rights Commission); (iii) state and federal courts; and (iv) other local protections through an employee's county, city, or town of residence and your local police department. MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES: Any Davey Tree supervisor or manager who receives a harassment complaint or information regarding suspected harassment or other potential violations of this policy, observes conduct that may violate this policy, or otherwise has reason to suspect that harassment, discrimination, or retaliation has occurred, is required to report such issues to Human Resources or the Legal Department in accordance with the complaint procedure described above. Any supervisor or manager who violates this policy, fails to report suspected harassment or violations of this policy, or knowingly allows harassment or other inappropriate conduct to continue will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including discharge. Retaliation: No employee will be subject to reprisal or retaliation for having made a good faith complaint of harassment, provided information related to an investigation of suspected harassment, or participated in an investigation into allegations of harassment. Directions for Contacting Appropriate External Agencies: Employees who wish to pursue legal remedies with certain government entities may contact the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and/or the appropriate state fair employment agency for the state in which they work.
