Policies and Procedures

Hillel International has developed and compiled policies, procedures, and resource documents related to our commitment to creating safe, respectful, and equitable workplaces and communities.

Policy Samples

Hillels may choose to adopt these or create their own in partnership with their University, Federation or Board.

• Hillel’s Code of Ethics outlines the Hillel International Board of Directors’ commitment to observing and promoting the highest standards of ethical conduct. We recommend that each local Hillel board adopt a similar code of ethics.

• Draft Policy Against Harassment, Discrimination, and Retaliation
• Equal Employment Opportunity Policy

New York Specifics

In the wake of the #MeToo movement, both New York State and New York City have passed laws aimed at combatting sexual harassment. For Hillels and community organizations based in the New York area, more information on laws and requirements can be found on the New York Laws and Requirements page.
