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
