Sexual harassment and inappropriate conduct resulting from sexual harassment constitute a criminal offence.

The University has enacted regulations regarding prevention of sexual harassment, as required by law.  The purpose of the regulations is to ensure that the University can provide a safe working and learning environment, without threat of sexual harassment, nor resulting unfair treatment by supervisory staff.

The University has appointed a Complaints Commissioner who also acts as advisor on the prevention of sexual harassment. If the Commissioner receives a complaint, a preliminary investigation is held.  If legitimate grounds are found for the complaint, a disciplinary procedure follows.

The current Commissioners are Prof. Esther Shohami, Tel: 02 5881804, hatrada@savion.huji.ac.il

and Ms. Susie Zeligman, Tel: 02 5882355,  susies@savion.huji.ac.il
