Transgender and Other Gender Non-Conforming Employee Policy

This is an excellent resource to use as a template for creating a policy within your agency regarding support for transgender and other gender non-conforming staff, and in particular the transitioning of transgender personnel. This policy "outlines the Department of the Interior (Department) policy regarding support for transgender and other gender non-conforming employees" (p. 1). 

Procedures explain: 

  • responsibilities of the various agency departments and staff; transition plan; 
  • restroom, locker room, and other DOI owned/leased public facilities; 
  • uniforms and dress codes; and departmental point-of-contact. 
  • An appendix provides 
    • transition plan guidance; 
    • applicability; 
    • advance preparation; 
    • the day of the announcement; 
    • and the first day of full-time workplace gender transition.
