Equal Opportunity

Navy Harassment Prevention and Military Equal Opportunity

It is Department of the Navy (DoN) policy to prohibit harassment and unlawful discrimination against persons or groups based on race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity), national origin, or sexual orientation. This applies to, but is not limited to, recruitment, recruitment advertising, training, advancement and promotion, job assignments, collateral duties, transfers, and all other aspects of employment. The Navy is committed to maintaining a work environment that is free of harassment and unlawful discrimination.

Leadership is the key to eliminating all forms of harassment and prohibited discrimination. Commanders and supervisors at every level must clearly communicate that harassment and prohibited discrimination will not be tolerated and must reinforce, through both words and actions, a climate that does not condone this behavior.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

It is DoD and DON policy to prohibit harassment and prohibited discrimination against persons or groups based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), gender identity, national origin, or sexual orientation. This applies to, but is not limited to, recruitment, recruitment advertising, training, advancement and promotion, job assignments, collateral duties, transfers, and all other aspects of employment. The Navy is committed to maintaining a work environment that is free of harassment and prohibited discrimination.

The Navy has zero tolerance for harassment and prohibited discrimination. Acts of harassment and prohibited discrimination are contrary to the Navy core values of honor, courage, and commitment. Service members who model the Navy core values do not engage in demeaning or destructive behaviors nor condone these actions in others, but instead, exhibit and reinforce signature behaviors.

The ten signature behaviors are:

1. Treat every person with respect.
2. Take responsibility for my actions.
3. Hold others accountable for their actions.
4. Intervene when necessary.
5. Be a leader and encourage leadership in others.
6. Grow personally and professionally every day.
7. Embrace the diversity of ideas, experiences, and backgrounds of individuals.
8. Uphold the highest degree of integrity in professional and personal life.
9. Exercise discipline in conduct and performance.
10. Contribute to team success through actions and attitudes.
