UNIVERSITY OF MAINE AT AUGUSTA EMPLOYEE ANTI-HARRASSMENT TRAINING
The University Maine at Augusta is committed to providing a positive educational and work environment that recognizes and respects the rights and dignity of all students, faculty, and staff. Harassment of any form undermines this important commitment and is neither appropriate nor acceptable within the university community. Further, in complying with the letter and spirit of applicable laws and pursuing its own goals of diversity, the University of Maine at Augusta will not tolerate discriminatory harassment on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, including transgender status and gender expression, national origin or citizenship status, age, disability, whistleblower or veterans status in employment, education, and all other areas of the University. For more information about the University's non-discrimination policy please visit http://www.maine.edu/system/hr/nondiscrimination.php.
As part of our commitment to a safe and welcoming workplace, we are committed to providing Anti-Harassment Training on an on-going basis to all employees. In order to best serve the needs of our supervisors and employees, we have partnered with Bernstein Shur, a local law firm, to offer an online video delivery of this mandatory training.
If you are a supervisor, you are required to complete the on-line module for supervisors. The entire module takes less than one hour. In addition, the University needs your assistance in committing to 100% training of all employees that report to you. If you are not a supervisor, please complete the employee training module which takes approximately forty-five minutes.
Below you will find details on the website and the log-ins that have been established for UMA.
If you are unable to access the on-line training, or if you would prefer a different delivery, we can accommodate any delivery system that works best for you.
Thank you for your support and compliance in this important matter.
