Canisius is committed to maintaining a workplace free from sexual harassment. Every employer in New York State is required to provide employees with sexual harassment prevention training on an annual basis. As an alternative to the online training option, the College is partnering with Phillips Lytle to provide this in-person training option to meet the requirement for 2023. You are only required to register for one of the sessions listed below to meet the training requirement.
The following sessions are scheduled for the fall semester in the Regis Room:
Wednesday, September 13 from 12:00 -1:00 p.m.
Thursday, September 14 from 11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Our training discussion will include:
- an explanation of sexual harassment consistent with guidance issued by the Department of Labor in consultation with the Division of Human Rights
- examples of conduct that would constitute unlawful sexual harassment
- information concerning the federal and state statutory provisions concerning sexual harassment and remedies available to victims of sexual harassment
- information regarding filing a complaint and all available forums for adjudicating complaints
- information addressing conduct by supervisors and any additional responsibilities for such supervisors
- information regarding our Title IX policies and protocols on campus

In an effort to better align the performance appraisal timeline with review of the prior academic year, we will be initiating the performance appraisal process in June this year.
PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL SCHEDULE
The first step in the appraisal process is for employees to complete a self-assessment through Dynamic Forms. For your convenience, all staff will have access to prior performance appraisals in the portal under the Human Resources tab in “HR Appraisal History”.
All notifications will be generated through your Canisius e-mail account and will be sent directly from hr@canisius.edu. Please save any e-mails that you receive regarding your appraisal.
- Employees will receive an e-mail invitation from hr@canisius.edu with a link to the Self-Assessment form on Thursday, June 1st.
- Once the assessment is completed, the Supervisor will receive an e-mail notification advising them to move forward with the preparation of the performance appraisal.
- Employees should complete the self-assessment by June 30th.
- Performance appraisal meetings should be scheduled between July 5th and July 31st.
- We encourage all Supervisors to pre-schedule your appraisal meetings in advance to assure completion by July 31st.
- Once completed, the Supervisor will then submit the appraisal.
- The employee will receive a final e-mail to add comments and sign to acknowledge the appraisal was received and reviewed.
Training sessions will be scheduled to assist staff in completing the self-assessment. To assist Supervisors in completing performance appraisals, please note that zoom training sessions will be scheduled. Watch for additional information including dates and times.
Please contact Linda Walleshauser at walleshl@canisius.edu or ext. 2244 or Mary Braun at braun5@canisius.edu or ext. 2247 if you have any questions regarding the process.
