With thousands of faculty, staff, students, and visitors, we rely on individuals like you throughout all parts of campus to work together to report knowledge of alleged harassment and discrimination. While everyone is encouraged to report alleged incidents of harassment and discrimination, certain employees at Purdue have been designated as Mandatory Reporters who must report these incidents.
After completing this training, you will be able to fulfill your role as a Mandatory Reporter by recognizing and reporting violations of the Anti-Harassment and Title IX Harassment Policies and Mandatory Reporting of Child Abuse & Neglect.

Are all faculty members Mandatory Reporters?
No. Only faculty who are also supervisors are Mandatory Reporters. Faculty who do not supervise employees (staff or students) are not Mandatory Reporters unless they hold a position with the title of “Head” or “Dean” or any form of an administrative role.
Can I opt out of this responsibility?
No. Mandatory Reporters are designated based on federal law and University policy. Mandatory Reporters are designated based on a position and not a specific person. The position is designated as a Mandatory Reporter regardless of the person in that position.
Am I still a Mandatory Reporter even if I am hybrid/fully remote?
Yes. Employee work location is not a factor in designating Mandatory Reporters. For example, if you supervise a fully remote team and one of your direct reports shares with you they are experiencing online harassment or discrimination in the context of their work, you would need to report this.
Additionally, students can experience harassment or discrimination in fully online courses. This would need to be reported.
Can employees who are not Mandatory Reporters report incidents?
Yes. The University encourages all employees to report incidents of harassment and discrimination, but Mandatory Reporters are legally obligated to report incidents to the University.
