Status of Women committee Once it's filed it goes right to that area within our career development bureau in our human resources section to an area where that's all they do in their work. I shouldn't say that's all they do, but it's a big part of what they do. Sometimes it's very obvious that it is fairly

Status of Women committee I think it changes. It's a bit of a grey area when it comes to where the line is. A direct supervisor asking out an employee, in my view, is totally inappropriate. Someone of a higher rank asking out someone at a lower rank who works in a totally different area of the organizatio

Status of Women committee I can't say that we have never considered it, because I don't know what's happened prior to my being at the executive level. It currently does not exist, but it generally is viewed as something to avoid. As I said, we keep track of trends, and what happens and what's viewed as be

Commr Chris D. Lewis
Status of Women committee Thank you for that. First of all, in 2012, there were 118 complaints as opposed to 78. Why that isn't put out publicly—obviously we never put out names; that goes without saying—and why we don't put out stats if we're asked by government organizations, I don't know. I don't thin

Status of Women committee We call them NCOs, our sergeants and staff sergeants, and there's a number of conferences annually across the OPP. I can't say that there is always something on the agenda relating to this, but if there are any kinds of new issues or trends or anything that are being seen, that i

Status of Women committee Exactly, yes.

Commr Chris D. Lewis
Status of Women committee I don't have the statistics with me. We certainly kept the stats in the years prior to that. I'm told anecdotally that our stats are down, but I don't think we ever had a significant issue where, for example, let's say that hypothetically 1,000 employees put in complaints. I don'

Status of Women committee I'm reluctant to say what's less severe, because to some people it may have been more upsetting than you might think just looking at the circumstances, because people are different. Let's say a male supervisor asks a female constable that works for him out on a date and the con
