Bullying and Harassment
Bullying and harassment happen in many places and come in many different forms from making threats and releasing personally identifiable information to sending threatening messages and making unwanted malicious contact. We do not tolerate this kind of behaviour because it prevents people from feeling safe and respected on Quote It.
We remove content that's meant to degrade or shame, including, for example, claims about someone's sexual personal activity. Context and intent matter, and we allow people to review their experience with each other if it is clear that it is related to the job post or request for services. In certain instances, we require self-reporting because it helps us understand that the person targeted feels bullied or harassed.
