Section 7.591. Prohibition

A department, board, commission or other agency under the Governor’s jurisdiction may not tolerate sexual harassment by a Commonwealth employee against another employee, applicant for employment, or client or other person receiving services from or conducting business with the Commonwealth. Sexual harassment in Commonwealth work settings is strictly forbidden. Further, a department, board, commission or other agency under the Governor’s jurisdiction may not tolerate acts of sexual harassment by persons not employed by the Commonwealth within Commonwealth offices or upon employees of the Commonwealth in the performance of their duties. Sexual harassment is a violation of Federal and State law. Therefore, all Federal and State laws relating to sexual harassment or sex discrimination, or both, will be enforced.
