Children’s National Hospital affirms its commitment to promote and maintain a work environment free of harassment, discrimination and bias based on race, color, sex, religion, national origin, age, disability, marital status, ancestry, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, family responsibility, matriculation, political affiliation, genetic information, veteran status or any other legally protected status. We also make every attempt to prohibit discrimination, harassment or bias on any other basic human differences such as weight, or other such personal characteristics.
Children’s National Hospital updated it’s Bias Incidents, Harassment & Discrimination policy a little over a year ago. The Child Health Advocacy Institute (CHAI) compiled a committee together to spread the work about the new policy and process for Bias and Harassment through the SharePoint of Children’s National.
