Summary of Changes from Previous Version

This new procedure replaces section 10 and 11 of the Sexual Harrassment Prevention Policy which was rescinded on 5 December 2025 as a result of the GBV Project and the establishment of a GBV Prevention and Response Policy and Procedure. There are no new requirements, instead existing provisions have been seperated out of the policy and will be a stand alone procedure to ensure visability and reduce the risk of non compliance. Risk and OGSM were consulted.
