Τhis policy sets out MdM Greece’s approach to preventing and responding to sexual exploitation, abuse and harassment (SEAH). It sets out:
- The principles upon which we will base our decision making and actions;
- Our expectations of everyone who works for and with MdM Greece;
- Our commitments to ensure effective action is taken when cases occur.
The policy applies to all staff at all times during their service with MdM Greece. “Staff” in this policy refers to MdM Greece’s employees, interns, volunteers, consultants and sub-contractors as well as the staff of all partner organisations working for MdM Greece’s programme (hereafter called “staff”). All member organisations commit to implementing this policy and to taking the necessary steps to do so. By means of a contractual clause, they also ensure that their contracting parties comply with the PSEAH minimal standards.
All staff will be familiar with this policy. Changes to this policy will be subject to prior consultations with staff members and member organisations.
This Policy will be used in conjunction with relevant employment/labor law and relevant criminal laws to make decisions about how to respond to any allegations, complaints and concerns received.
