The Harassment Acknowledgement Form is a mandatory document in Belgian workplaces, designed to comply with federal anti-harassment legislation, including the Well-being at Work Act and associated Royal Decrees. This document should be implemented during employee onboarding and updated whenever significant policy changes occur. The form serves multiple purposes: it educates employees about different types of harassment, confirms their understanding of company policies and reporting procedures, and provides legal protection for both employers and employees. The document typically includes definitions of harassment, prohibited behaviors, reporting mechanisms, and non-retaliation provisions, all aligned with Belgian legal requirements. It's particularly important in the context of Belgium's multi-lingual work environment, often requiring availability in French, Dutch, and sometimes German.
