The Company encourages the reporting of all incidents of sexual harassment, regardless of who the offender may be and will not tolerate any retaliation against individuals who decline sexual advances or bring complaints about harassment or who participate in investigations regarding harassment.
REPORTING A COMPLAINT The Company encourages individuals who believe they have been or are being harassed to promptly advise the alleged offender that his or her behavior is unwelcome.
In many circumstances however, an employee may be uncomfortable with confronting that person, especially if the harasser is the employee’s manager or supervisor.

Employees are urged to report harassment before it becomes severe or pervasive.
Isolated incidents of harassment may not be violations of law, especially if the offended person fails to communicate that they are unwelcome.
However, because a pattern of such incidents may be unlawful, it is important to report such conduct before it becomes a serious problem.
The Company encourages prompt reporting of complaints so that swift and appropriate action may be taken.
However, due to the sensitive nature of sexual harassment, the Company does not impose a time limit for reporting sexual harassment.
Employees should recognize, however, that the more time that passes after an incident, the more difficult it becomes for the Company to perform a complete, accurate and thorough investigation and take effective action.
All employees have the right at any time to report sexual harassment to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or its state and local counterparts.
PROTECTION AGAINST RETALIATION The Company will not in any way retaliate against an individual who makes a legitimate report of perceived harassment; nor will the Company permit any employee to engage in retaliation of any kind against individuals who initiate or participate in harassment investigations.
Retaliation is a serious violation of this Policy and anyone who feels they have been subjected to any acts of retaliation should immediately report such conduct.
Any person who directly or indirectly retaliates against an employee for reporting any perceived acts of harassment or participating in an investigation of harassment will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including discharge.
HARASSMENT OF AND BY NON-EMPLOYEES The Company also encourages employees to report harassment by non-employees, such as vendors, contract personnel, other service providers and any other non-employees.
In addition, harassment by Z and H Foods, Inc.
employees of non-employees such as customers, invitees, delivery personnel, service personnel, and job applicants is also prohibited.
INVESTIGATING THE COMPLAINT All allegations of harassment will be promptly and thoroughly investigated.
The Company will conduct an impartial investigation, and no individuals who are alleged to have participated in the harassment will have any role in the investigation of the complaint.
The Company will endeavor to maintain confidentiality throughout the investigatory process to the extent practical and appropriate under the circumstances.
Even if the victim has not actually made a complaint or does not wish to have his or her allegations investigated, the Company has a duty to investigate all instances of harassment that are brought to the Company’s attention.
RESOLVING THE COMPLAINT The Company has specific Procedures and Guidelines for investigating harassment; those Procedures and Guidelines must be reviewed by the investigators prior to initiating any investigation of harassment.
Upon completing the investigation of a sexual harassment complaint, the findings will be communicated to the complainant and alleged offender.
If the Company finds that harassment occurred, the harasser will be subject to appropriate disciplinary action.
Disciplinary actions against the harasser may include: written reprimand referral to appropriate counseling or training withholding of a promotion or bonus reassignment temporary suspension without pay or probation discharge No matter how minor the infraction and even if it is a first offense, a written reprimand, as opposed to a verbal reprimand, must always be given when it has been determined that sexual has occurred.
Even where it is a first offense for a harasser, if the offense is serious enough the Company may terminate the harasser for his or her actions.
RECONSIDERATION If the person bringing the complaint or the alleged offender is dissatisfied with the outcome of the investigation, either individual has the right to seek reconsideration of the decision through the Company's grievance procedures.
FALSE AND MALICIOUS ACCUSATIONS The Company recognizes that false accusations of harassment can cause serious harm to innocent persons.
If an investigation results in a finding that the person bringing the complaint has knowingly, or, in a malicious manner, falsely accused another person of harassment, that person may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including discharge.
CONFIDENTIALITY The Company recognizes the extreme sensitivity of sexual harassment allegations and investigations, and emphasizes that everyone involved should respect and enforce confidentiality and personal privacy to the maximum extent consistent with prompt and effective resolutions.
Everyone involved in this process should recognize its impact on co-workers, relatives, and the general public before communicating with people who do not have a business need to know.
This in no way is intended to discourage anyone’s access to the EEOC or its state and local counterpart agencies.
