  5. Harassment • Insulting words or phrases, slurs, stereotyping, intimidating or hostile acts. • Material placed on walls or bulletin boards or circulated in the workplace that insults, denigrates, or offends. • Actions that threaten or result in physical contact such as hitting, shoving, pushing, and/or other acts of aggression.

  6. Sexual Harassment Sexual harassment is unlawful. Sexual harassment involves unwanted or unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature. Offensive remarks about a person’s sex, or any other type of harassment that is based on a person’s sex, is also considered sexual harassment.

  7. Accountability Board • The Board was established in July 1998 to address allegations of sexual harassment, misconduct of a sexual nature and related reprisal. • As of July 1, 2000, the Board’s scope was be expanded to also include all allegations/incidents of verbal, written, graphic or physical harassment and other misconduct that creates or that may reasonably be expected to create an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment based on race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, age or disability. • FAA Order 1110.125A

  8. Accountability BoardThe scope of the Accountability Board does not include allegations of discrimination involving: • Non-selections • Disciplinary Actions • Promotions • Performance Management • Other Personnel Actions

  9. Accountability Board Allegations of sexual harassment that may include unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when submission to, or rejection of, such advances or requests that: • Are made a term of employment; or • Are the basis for employment decision; or • Unreasonably interfere with an individual's work performance or create an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work environment.

  10. Accountability Board Allegations or incidents of misconduct of a sexual nature that include behavior that fall short of the legal definition of sexual harassment but impact on job performance, or are not conducive to a professional work environment.

  11. Crossing “The Line” • PSP committee members need to recognize when an issue “crosses the line”. • PSP cannot accept issues that cross the line. • PSP cannot accept issues when management has been notified or for management-initiated issues.

  12. Questions to Ask • Is Management involved? • Is the offending party aware of the problem? • Have steps been taken to mitigate or solve the problem?

  13. Should Professional Standards take the case? • John asks Susan out for a date • John asks Susan out for a second date a month later • John sends flowers and candy to Susan for her birthday • John lives 70 miles from Susan and the flowers and candy are sent from the post office down the street from her house
