Hello,
I wanted to ask a question on here about a situation I am experiencing at work (some may already be aware).
Basically, I have received a letter, accusing me of making serious comments on a social media website, which I did not, but have been warned by others that I may have a hard time upholding this, which I understand.
My TU rep has been given a verbal indication of the comments and he says he has seen nothing there that causes him concern and also that the majority of the really nasty comments came from other people in this conversation I supposedly had.
Also, looking at the employment policy on bullying and harassment, I believe that they have not followed procedures and am finding some serious loopholes on the part of the complainant but more on the side of the employer in this case.
I have an interview next week but I have had to delay it twice. Once because I was on stress leave (I got to the point of almost making desperate choices but thankfully did not and I hope nobody else has to find themselves in this position and if they did, I'd say please don't do anything desperate) and the other was because I went to the hospital, which was today, so it has been rescheduled for next Thursday.
At the moment, with so many loopholes I suspect I have found, I am very reluctant to go into any meeting and believe this merits further investigation to act as a defence on my part. Am I right in thinking that companies who do not follow procedure are opening themselves up to trouble if they do not follow the procedures properly?
Of the comments made, I deem myself only one I supposedly said to be of any serious consequence and even then, my TU rep couldn't see anything there that concerns him. He also said the majority of the comments were not made by me (which is evident from the social media transcript). If anyone wants to know what the comments were, please PM me because I am really keen to get advice from anyone, especially those who have specialist knowledge in this area.
Thank you for your help. As you can see, its been a very stressful time for me and just want a resolution to this nightmare now, if I am being honest because I have been through every emotion possible and it has taken a serious toll on my mental health and wellbeing.
Regards
