The Olympians Swimming's Discipline and Complaints Policy, details the procedures for addressing alleged breaches of the organization's Code of Conduct and Ethics. The policy defines two processes for handling complaints, depending on the severity of the allegations. Process #1, managed by an Internal Discipline Chair, addresses less severe incidents like disrespectful conduct or minor policy violations. Process #2, overseen by a Case Manager and an External Discipline Panel, handles more serious allegations, such as harassment, violence, or criminal offenses. Both processes emphasize fairness, confidentiality, and a commitment to maintaining a safe and respectful environment for all participants. The policy also outlines the potential sanctions that may be imposed, ranging from warnings and education to suspension or permanent ineligibility, depending on the nature and severity of the violation.
