Sexual Harassment Respect in the Workplace LSI’s Company Culture
3
Two types of Sexual Harassment Quid Pro Quo If you do “x” for me, I’ll give you “y” Hostile Environment Harder to describe with one example – but it’s anything that can make the work environment unpleasant for others Can be anything from a bikini calendar displayed to lewd jokes told to unacceptable touching
4
Avoid issues by considering the Golden Rule If you have to question the appropriateness of an action/statement, then it’s probably not appropriate It can happen unintentionally - you may be joking but the person on the receiving end may be uncomfortable
5
LSI recently had a charge brought against the company for sexual harassment by a former employee The evidence indicated the situation was simply a misunderstanding, but it illustrates that the charges can arise Better communication practices as well as consideration for others could have prevented this charge
6
Reports of possible sexual harassment need to be directed to your direct supervisor; if the direct supervisor is involved in the complaint, any other member of leadership or the HR department can accept your complaint All complaints will be investigated fully, to include examining emails and company communication methods Complaints and investigations are handled with complete confidentiality
7
Appropriate disciplinary procedures, up to and including termination, will be applied based on the outcome of the investigation False complaints will result in disciplinary action

LSI’s core practice “One-Team” can only be achieved by mutual respect among the team members
10
Tiny actions convey respect Tiny actions often get overlooked in the busy day, when deadlines are pressing down and when stressful situations arise Be aware of how you are speaking to others Be aware that others also have their jobs to perform
11
Teamwork means Working as a Team Coordinate with others regarding yours needs, rather than telling others to do something Follow the Golden Rule – Do unto others as you would have done unto you
12
One Team Work together across physical and departmental boundaries, creating a “boundaryless” environment High accountability = High quality results
