Sexual harassment consists of unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature. Sexual harassment can occur in a variety of circumstances. The harasser can identify with any gender and have any relationship to the victim, including being a direct manager, indirect supervisor, or coworker.

Is it appropriate to show or tell associates, suppliers or customers stereotypical or sexual jokes in the workplace?

No. It could be offensive to someone else in the workplace. If you’re in any doubt, do not show or tell the potentially offensive material.

What if an associate I manage has alleged that another associate has inappropriately touched him/her and harassed him/her on multiple occasions, but I haven't reported because I don't believe his/her story. Is it a violation of the Code of Conduct to not report this associate's allegation to Ethics even though I don't think his/her report is credible?

Yes. As a manager, you are required under the Global Discrimination and Harassment Prevention Policy to report all alleged incidents of harassment or discrimination to Ethics & Compliance.

Another associate regularly comments about how attractive I am, which makes me feel uncomfortable. What should I do?

We encourage you to tell the person to stop. If you’re not comfortable talking to the person or the behavior does not stop, report the issue to management, your People Lead or Ethics & Compliance.
