The Process: What Happens When You Report

Preliminary Investigation and Assessment

Upon receiving a report, or being informed about potentially discriminatory conduct, OIE takes the following actions: 

  • Provides information and resources to impacted individuals 
  • Makes referrals as appropriate for impacted individuals  
  • Initiates a preliminary assessment to determine whether the concern is best addressed by OIE;
    OIE assesses whether it is appropriate for a formal process or an alternate resolution process 
  • Provides impacted individuals with options for support and resolution

Informal Resolution

Each report of discriminatory conduct is evaluated and assessed. Some reports are best resolved by informal processes which may still involve investigation, resolution options, and recommendations.

Informal process may be initiated at the request of an individual, administrator or at the discretion of OIE.

Formal Process

Complaint Process

Complaints may be available to address allegations of discriminatory conduct; this option is dependent on evaluation of factors including the conduct alleged, the impact on an individual and the date of occurrence.

The process of formal complaint resolution involves the following:

  • Formal investigation  
  • Determination  
  • Potential recommendation(s) 

Administrative Review

An administrative review regarding potential discrimination may occur at the request of an administrator who has concerns that discriminatory conduct may be occurring, with or without information regarding the identity(ies) of the individual(s) who may have engaged in the conduct.
