Abstract: This is a reinstatement request without changes to continue collecting information about possible concerns regarding harassment, bullying, retaliation or hostile working conditions. The NIH Grants Policy Statement Section 4 outlines that NIH recipient institutions are expected to provide safe and healthful working conditions for their employees and foster work environments conducive to high-quality research, regardless of the recipient institution. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (Public Law 117-103), Division H, Title II, Section 239 requires that, “[t]he Director of the National Institutes of Health shall hereafter require institutions that receive funds through a grant or cooperative agreement during fiscal year 2022 and in future years to notify the Director when individuals identified as a Program Director or Principal Investigator (PD/PI) or as Senior/Key personnel in an NIH notice of award are removed from their position or are otherwise disciplined due to concerns about harassment, bullying, retaliation, or hostile working conditions.” Therefore, NIH recipient institutions are required to notify NIH when individuals identified as PD/PI or other Senior/Key personnel in an NIH notice of award are removed from their position or are otherwise disciplined by the recipient institution due to concerns about harassment, bullying, retaliation or hostile working conditions. The secure Harassment Web Form will be used to collect notifications from institutional Authorized Organization Representatives (AORs) which must include, at a minimum, the name of the AOR submitting the notification, the name of the individual of concern, a description of the concerns, the action(s) taken, and any anticipated impact on the NIH-funded award(s).
