Harassment Policy

The Utah EMT Academy is committed in all areas to providing a learning and work environment that is free from harassment. Harassment based upon an individual's sex, race, ethnicity, national origin, age, religion or any other legally protected characteristics will not be tolerated. All employees, including supervisors and other management personnel, are expected and required to abide by this policy. All students and guests are expected and required to abide by this policy. No person will be adversely affected in employment with the employer as a result of bringing complaints of unlawful harassment. No student will be adversely affected in their academic status or progress as a result of bringing complaints of unlawful harassment. 

Sexual harassment is behavior of a sexual nature that is unwelcome and offensive to the person or persons it is targeted toward. Examples of harassing behavior may include unwanted physical contact, foul language of an offensive sexual nature, sexual propositions, sexual jokes or remarks, obscene gestures, and displays of pornographic or sexually explicit pictures, drawings, or caricatures. Use of the Utah EMT Academy’s computer system for the purpose of viewing, displaying, or disseminating material that is sexual in nature may also constitute harassing behavior.

If a student or employee feels that he or she has been harassed on the basis of his or her sex, race, national origin, ethic background, or any other legally protected characteristic they should immediately report the matter to their Instructor, Course Coordinator, or employer. If that person is not available, or if the student or employee feels it would be unproductive to inform that person, the student or employee should immediately contact the Course Coordinator, the Owner, and/or the Medical Director. Contact information for these individuals is outlined in your class syllabus and schedule. Once the matter has been reported it will be promptly investigated and any necessary corrective action will be taken where appropriate. All complaints of unlawful harassment will be handled in as discreet and confidential a manner as is possible under the circumstances.
Any employee or student engaging in improper harassing behavior will be subject to disciplinary action, including the possible termination of employment or dismissal from the program.
