During the investigation process, did you feel it was carried out: (Select all that apply) Fairly? Respectfully? In a timely manner? None of the above Tip: The responses will give you an indication of how your investigation processes are perceived, and whether staff trust those processes. 12. During the investigation process, did you feel your privacy was sufficiently protected? Yes No Tip: Any "no" responses, even if from just one respondent, must be treated as an immediate priority, because it's a strong indicator that your workplace harassment program's privacy and confidentiality measures may need to be revised. You could modify the questionnaire by adding a follow-up question inviting suggestions for improvements (make it a free-text form). 13. If you were the person who experienced the harassment, were you informed in writing of the results of the investigation, including any corrective action that was or would be taken? Note: if you witnessed the harassment and reported it, do not respond to Question 13 and instead skip to Question 14. Yes No Tip: the purpose of this question is to tell you whether you are complying with s.32.0.7(1)(b) of OHSA, which requires the employer to inform the person who was allegedly harassed of the results of the investigation and of any corrective action taken or to be taken. This must be done in writing. Note also that the alleged harasser, if he/she is another worker, must also receive a written report. If the person who reported the harassment is different from the person who was allegedly harassed, the reporter does not receive a copy of the investigation results/corrective actions. Staff who witnessed the harassment and made a report are asked to skip Question 14 because OHSA requires the investigation report to be given to the person who experienced the alleged harassment rather than to the witness, even if the witness was the one who reported it.
