3. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY <br /> The Utilities pledges its best efforts to avoid discrimination against any employee or <br /> applicant for employment because of race, color, creed, religion, sex, age, national origin, <br /> sexual orientation, marital status, genetic information, veteran status, status with regard to <br /> public assistance, disability, or any other status protected by state or federal law. <br /> The Utilities prohibits discrimination against and harassment of any employee or job <br /> applicant on the basis of protected class status. Employees who participate in <br /> discrimination in violation of this Policy are subject to discipline up to and including <br /> termination. Retaliation against any employee for making a good faith complaint under <br /> this Policy or for assisting with investigations of complaints made under this Policy is <br /> also strictly prohibited. <br /> Any person who feels that he/she has experienced discrimination or harassment in <br /> violation of law and/or this Policy should immediately contact his/her supervisor, the <br /> Human Resources Representative, and/or any Utilities manager. Any manager or <br /> Director who receives a report under this policy is required to communicate the matter to <br /> the Human Resources Representative immediately. <br /> 4. DISABILITY ACCOMMODATION <br /> The Utilities seeks to provide reasonable accommodation, as appropriate, for qualified <br /> employees who have disabilities. An employee who believes that he or she requires an <br /> accommodation due to a disability in order to perform the essential functions of his or her <br /> position should so advise his or her immediate supervisor, another Utilities manager, or <br /> the Human Resources Representative. We ask that this request be made in writing. <br /> Retaliation against any individual for making a good faith complaint under this Equal <br /> Employment Opportunity/Disability Accommodation policy, for opposing <br /> discrimination, or for participating in an investigation of any claim regarding <br /> discrimination or disability accommodation is strictly prohibited. <br /> If you feel that you have experienced such retaliation, you should follow the Reporting <br /> Procedure outlined above in the Open Door Policy. Any manager or Director who <br /> receives a report under this policy is required to communicate the matter to the Human <br /> Resources Representative immediately. <br /> 5. HARASSMENT PROHIBITED <br /> All Utilities employees have a right to work in an environment free from discrimination <br /> and intimidation, including harassment. The mission of the Utilities is best accomplished <br /> in an atmosphere of professionalism that in turn is supported by mutual respect and trust. <br /> 3 <br /> Octohcr- 30/1 <br /> l jn it 2013 <br />
