If you don’t believe the interpersonal option will be successful, or you have tried the interpersonal approach and it did not stop the concerning behavior, you may consider reporting to a supervisor or HR professional.
The typical options for response include:
- Reporting to a supervisor or HR professional
Your supervisor will need to know:
- What or who has been the main cause of your concerns
- What type of behavior has been occurring and how often
- Your preferences as to how you would like the matter resolved
Please note:
- Although your report will only be shared with those who have a need to know, it is not confidential. If you would first like to speak with a confidential resource, you should contact the Ombuds or EAO.
- Sexual misconduct (including sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating/domestic violence, stalking, and sexual exploitation) will need to be reported to the Office of Compliance for response.
- Any active safety concerns for you or others on campus may need to be reported to UWPD
- Reports to a supervisor or an HR representative may lead to an initial HR inquiry, but will not initiate a formal investigation.
