Submit a report to OCIC

博彩网站 encourages you to submit a report if you experience any discrimination, harassment, or retaliation based on protected characteristics, including incidents of sexual misconduct. 

• Anyone connected to 博彩网站 may use the Integrity Helpline online form to report something they experienced.
• All employees are required to report such incidents that they are told about, reasonably suspect or witness. 
  • Employees must do their best to report incidents within 24 hours and must include their name and contact information if they are reporting on behalf of someone else/filing a third-party report.

What to expect

Response: A Confidential Intake Specialist will typically reach out to the impacted person(s) within 24 hours of receiving a report. The estimated time to provide outreach may be longer if there is a weekend or holiday.

Protection from retaliation: Federal and state laws and 博彩网站 policy prohibit retaliation against anyone who files a complaint with OCIC or who takes part in an OCIC investigation. Learn how 博彩网站 defines retaliation on Page 5 of 博彩网站’s Discrimination, Harassment and Retaliation Policy.

Referral: If appropriate, we may direct your complaint to Human Resources, the Integrity Department, your union, or another 博彩网站 department.

Confidential Advocacy Program for Employees (CAPE)

CAPE is also a confidential resource for employees experiencing interpersonal violence such as stalking, intimate partner violence, sexual harassment and sexual assault. CAPE works with employees to think through the safety, legal, health, mental wellness and workplace support they may need.
