I addressed these issues in my proposal at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Comprehensive_harassment_and_privacy_policy

Sexual harassment policy has been around for a good 30 years or so and by
now is pretty much boilerplate stuff.  Every company has something, whether
they have new employees sign a simple statement that they will not engage
in sexual harassment, or whether there is a formal training program they
have new employees read and sign as part of the new hire orientation.

There is a ton of stuff on the internet about the subject, for instance see
NOLO:
http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/preventing-sexual-harassment-workplace-29851.html

For my grant proposal, I borrowed heavily from NOLO's "Avoid Employee
Lawsuits: Commonsense tips for responsible management"
<http://www.amazon.com/Avoid-Employee-Lawsuits-Commonsense-Responsible/dp/0873374630/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1437760629&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=NOLO+prevent+employee+lawsuits>,
mostly condensing the ideas that were applicable to online interactions.
While the same ideas are common to most HR policies, this book presents
them fairly succinctly, as you would want in a policy written to be
understood by a wide variety of users.
