Palms Beauty Academy is committed to maintaining an educational environment that encourages and fosters appropriate conduct and respect for individuals

As an organization, the Academy is committed to these ideals as they relate to selection, employment, job assignment, promotions, compensation, benefits, disciplinary actions, training opportunities and all other terms and conditions of employment. Further, any employee found to be engaging in any type of unlawful discrimination, whether by action, comment, or otherwise, will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.

We cannot address issues if we do not know about them. If you feel that you have experienced or witnessed unlawful discrimination, you must report such conduct immediately, utilizing the procedures set forth in the Employee Concern Reporting Policy is outlined later in these policies. If you have questions or concerns about discrimination in the workplace, we ask you to share these issues with the owner or the Office Manager. Your complaints and/or concerns will be kept confidential to the extent possible. Further, the Practice prohibits any form of retaliation against any employee who, in good faith, raises concerns, makes reports or complaints about discrimination, or assists in a complaint investigation.

The Academy is committed to maintaining an educational environment that encourages and fosters appropriate conduct and respect for individuals. Accordingly, the Academy has adopted this policy in order to create a school environment free from discrimination of any kind, including sexual harassment and harassment based upon any other protected characteristic. Although there is a great emphasis in the business community on sexual harassment, the Academy wishes to emphasize that all forms of illegal harassment are unacceptable. This is not to diminish how we feel about sexual harassment, but to elevate in your mind that harassment based on any protected category will not be tolerated. Accordingly, the Academy will not tolerate harassment by or of any student, employee, non-employee, vendor, or visitor in any form, whether verbal, physical, written, electronically transmitted, or by innuendo. Any student or employee violating this policy shall be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment or expulsion of the student. Any student who feels that (s)he or another student or client is a victim of such harassment should immediately report the matter to Dr. Jacobs or the owners using the Student Concern Reporting Policy detailed at the end of this catalog.
