rennie group policy manual

● Displaying, accessing or circulating (including via Internet or email) sexually suggestive photographs, cartoons, graffiti, jokes and the like. ● Unwelcome and repeated flirtations, requests for dates and the like. ● Solicitation or coercion of sexual activity, dates or the like by the implied or express promise of rewards or preferential treatment. Sexual harassment may also occur when employment or business opportunities or benefits are conditioned on a Licensee granting sexual favors to, or having a romantic relationship with a Licensee, or employee. Enforcement Discriminatory harassment, particularly sexual harassment, can be difficult to define and misconceptions are common. For this reason, a Licensee must immediately report harassing actions to the designated broker without worrying about whether the conduct involved would be considered harassment in the legal sense. This policy is intended to assist rennie in addressing not only illegal harassment and discrimination, but also any conduct that is offensive and inappropriate. rennie will promptly investigate any concerns of harassment, taking into account privacy and confidentiality consistent with a fair investigation. Licensees working as independent contractors understand that violation of rennie’s sexual and discriminatory harassment policy is grounds for termination of the Licensee’s ICA. rennie will take whatever action deemed necessary to prevent an offense from being repeated. Remedial action will depend on the circumstances, including the gravity of the offense. Drug and Alcohol Use Drug and alcohol use is strictly prohibited while engaged in real estate brokerage services. Accordingly, Licensees are prohibited from possessing, selling, consuming alcohol or drugs; smelling of alcohol or being under any influence of any drug (except as authorized by a physician) or engaging in the consumption of alcohol while they are engaged in real estate brokerage services. Any situations in which duties cannot be properly performed without the assistance of prescribed medication must be reported to rennie. Licensees working as independent contractors understand that violation of rennie’s Drug and Alcohol Use policy is grounds for termination of the Licensee’s ICA. Licensees should also discourage the use of drugs or alcohol by any party during a transaction. Upon discovering that a party is under the influence of either drugs or alcohol, the Licensee should take appropriate action to terminate that day’s activity and suggest that they discuss or complete the transaction another time.
