Weird work situation

Beanie5

Hi Guys,

Thanks a million for all the support and advice, it's definitely helped a lot!

As regards taking stress leave, I'm hoping to avoid it. I don't want to feel like I'm being driven out of the company by a bully.

I've been quite vocal on how I feel about working with this person though. I just hope something is done and this doesn't end up affecting my career negatively.

Hi Guys,

Sorry for bringing an old thread up again, but this whole case is finally coming to an end for me. Last week the person in question was found guilty of harassment, sexual harassment and bullying. While I'm very relieved, I have absolutely no idea what to expect next...anyone ever had this before?

'Guilty' by your HR people or guilty in Court?

By the Hr investigative team who were to be impartial

I was very relieved when I read bit about him wanting you to drive to meeting . I feel you could have put yourself at danger .

Well done you

Can't say I have any experience, but each of them topics on there own are at least serious gross misconduct and at worst for the employer could warrant some a court case if you pushed for it.

I'd imagine he will be suspended and eventually let go. In fact the seriousness of them three topics, could just warrant him getting out right let go on the spot.

What a pheking weirdo, had to say it, but I hope he is out of the workplace for a long time!

I remember this thread. What an absolute sleazeball. Am so glad he is getting his comeuppance OP. Hope you are ok x

Is he getting sacked for gross misconduct?

If he stays on, it would be an awful environment

Have you asked HR what is going to happen, or at least a time frame for when this will be closed?

If you work in the private sector I expect he will be fired. If it's a college or public sector they may let him keep his Job and give him a written warning which could only last six months.

Have you spoken to a solicitor. If they don't fire him and you have to report to him still I'd go to an solisotor with a view to going to an employment tribunal for mediation, make it clear you don't feel safe around him and they have a duty of care towards you. If you think they are not going to fire him then go to a solicitor now as you may be able to force the issue.

Hi everyone,

Thanks a million for all the positive messages and support!!

So it hasn't officially gone to the hr department here yet, so no decision. That's kind of what I'm wondering? It's private sector so they would hardly keep him on would they?
