► Anti-Harrassment Policy
Passed at October 2004 AGM
Lapses October 2007
ANTI-HARASSMENT POLICY
This Union Notes
- DSU Sexual Harassment Policy lapses at this AGM.
- DSU aims to acknowledge student diversity and promote equality in all areas of student life.
- DSU aims to provide a safe space for students.
This Union Believes
- DSU student policy should go above and beyond what is expected of most other organisations, in regards to harassment policies.
- That DSU is an institution that exists to represent the interests of its members.
- This policy is inclusive of any type of harassment, based on race, colour, ethnic or natural origin, nationality, religion or belief, gender, martial status, sexual orientation or disability.
- Harassment is the term for unreciprocated, unsolicited and unwanted behaviour. This may take many forms, including:-
- Innuendos
- Verbal abuse
- Casual comments
- Physical assault
- Threat of physical assault
- Harassment is not acceptable behaviour.
- Harassment is potentially harmful, both physically and mentally.
- That literature can however, be used as a positive means for awareness to be raised.
- Union officers and those included in DSU union membership should not perpetuate or be seen to perpetuate harassment.
This Union Instructs
- That its facilities should not be used to perpetuate harassment through literature or otherwise, either within the Union or in the ‘outside world’.
- That any of the above behaviour will NOT be tolerated from any member of DSU or authorised visitor.
- That if any occurrences are reported, the matter will be investigated and the member in question could be subject to disciplinary action in accordance with both DSU and DMU guidelines.
Proposed by: Richard Treffler, President
