*Interim measures – Before a sanction is imposed, WHO may implement interim measures to provide support to the affected individual, to ensure the integrity of the investigation and any evidence, to prevent the occurrence or repetition of prohibited conduct, or to prevent retaliation.

a) measures to physically separate the alleged offender and the affected individual;
b) transfer (e.g., reassignment, loan, etc.) of either the alleged offender or the affected individual to another vacant position or function;
c) the consideration of special leave for either the alleged offender or the affected individual;
d) temporary changes in reporting lines;
e) the placement of the alleged offender on administrative leave; or,
f) any other appropriate measure or combination of measures to the extent consistent with WHO’s policies and practices.

*Clear Check – Clear Check is a critical UN-wide database to avoid the hiring and re-hiring of individuals whose working relationship with an organization of the system ended because of a determination that they perpetrated sexual harassment or sexual exploitation and abuse. The Database also allows for the inclusion of individuals with pending allegations who leave the organization before the completion of the investigation and/or disciplinary process.

*Warranted – “Warranted” following an action indicates the person was separated from WHO at the time the decision was issued.
