If possible, clearly state to whomever has subjected you to such behaviour that it is unwanted and should stop. Try to be as concrete as possible regarding what behaviour / statement you perceive as discrimination / harassment.
Document the incident. Record the time, date, possible witnesses, the incident, and what the person who harassed you said and / or did, your reaction and how you felt about it (what, where, when, and how).
For colleagues: The recommendation is that you contact your immediate superior and request a private conversation. If the troubling behaviour has occurred in the relationship between you and your boss, the problem should be referred to a higher level, and that level of leadership must be informed and take responsibility for investigating and managing the situation.
For students: The recommendation is to talk to someone in charge, such as the head of your programme /course coordinator (for the degree you are doing) and request a private conversation. In the case of suspected discrimination that involves the relationship between you and your course coordinator or the program head, the problem should be referred to a higher level, where senior leadership takes responsibility for investigating and managing the situation.
Take advantage of any offers of support, if deemed important. Support can be provided through Occupational Health (employee) and through Student Health (student).
If you do not want to go through the head of your programme, read more below about alternative contact routes.
If you want to submit a formal report, read more under the section ‘Formal Notification’.
All parties who feel vulnerable to harassment or sexual harassment or any other form of discrimination can inform and seek support from a variety of functions at the initial stage (to raise awareness of the occurrence).
