 #### Incidents involving Core Team members
 
-* If there are CoC reports either about or from (or in any way involving) Core
-  Team members who are Community Initiatives (CI) employees, and those reports
-  have the potential to rise to the level of harassment as defined by CI's
-  handbook, CI HR must be made aware immediately.
-* If a PEO employee (non-U.S. based Core Team members) is involved, we will
-  need to bring the PEO for country-specific advice.
-* In cases involving CI employees that are definitely not harassment, it is ok
-  to handle through CoCc without involving CI. Examples of types of things that
-  might be reported to the CoCc but that are not harassment are a workshop
-  participant swearing at an Instructor, or a community member who is rude and
-  pushy but not in any way related to sexual advances or protected categories.

-If a report involving a Core Team member is susceptible to meet the appropriate
-criteria for harassment, the CoCc should contact the Core Team liaison to the
-CoCc. The Core Team CoCc liaison will elevate anything that comes in by or about
-Core Team members to the Executive Team if appropriate and to Community
-Initiatives or the PEO if needed. If a report involves the Core Team CoCc
-liaison, the CoCc needs to contact the Executive Director directly.
+If a CoC report arises that involves one or more members of The Carpentries [Core Team](https://carpentries.org/team/),
+the CoC committee must determine whether that incident has the potential to be considered harassment. If harassment is involved, 
+or if there is doubt as to whether
+the incident could be considered harassment, the CoC committee will notify the Core Team liaison. The Core Team liaison will
+alert the appropriate Human Resources personnel and/or the Executive Team as appropriate. If a report involves the Core Team CoCc
+liaison, the CoCc will contact the Executive Director directly.
+
+In cases that are definitely not harassment, it is ok to handle incidents through the CoCc without involving Human Resources. 
+Examples of types of things that might be reported to the CoCc 
+but that are not harassment are a workshop participant swearing at an Instructor, 
+or a community member who is rude and pushy 
+but not in any way related to sexual advances or protected categories.
