When to include

Maine employers should consider including this statement in their handbook to demonstrate their commitment to a workplace free of harassment and compliance with the Maine Human Rights Act (MHRA). While not required to be in a handbook, an employer must annually distribute a written notice describing the process for filing internal complaints and setting forth the name, address and telephone number of the person or persons to whom complaints should be reported, as well as contact information for the state agency that receives such complaints.
