Sexual Harassment. The Government of British Columbia, in cooperation with the Union, will promote a work environment that is free from sexual harassment where all employees are treated with respect and dignity. Sexual harassment is one form of discrimination and is defined as any unwelcome comment or conduct of a sexual nature that may detrimentally affect the work environment or lead to adverse job-related consequences for the victim of the harassment. Prohibited conduct may be verbal, non-verbal, physical, deliberate or unintended, unsolicited or unwelcome, as determined by a reasonable person. It may be one incident or a series of incidents depending on the context. Sexual harassment does not include actions occasioned through exercising in good faith the Employer's managerial/supervisory rights and responsibilities. Protection against harassment extends to incidents occurring at or away from the workplace during or outside working hours provided the acts are committed within the course of the employment relationship. This clause does not preclude an employee from filing a complaint under Section 13 of the BC Human Rights Code, however, an employee shall not be entitled to duplication of process.

An employee who files a written complaint which would be seen by a reasonable person to be frivolous, vindictive or vexatious may be subject to disciplinary action.
