    I’m dealing with this at the moment and it’s devastating. I’m being wrongfully accused and the lies has almost brought me to suicide. I’ve been victimised because I stood up to the workplace manipulator.

      If you quit you are not leaving the job you are leaving a bad experience or a bad boss. If you job hunt i am sure you will find some thing better leave the trolls in the dust.

      This happened to me in the workplace, I had to do someone else shift as well as mine, on top of that, three of my assistants went home early, during different parts of the day, I only found out about it when I enquired as to where these people had gone, but because I acted unprofessionally by flying off the handle and swearing at one of them for going early, my management had to give me a final warning, to stop the person launching legal action.

    Could misused of formal procedures be considered an example of bullying (and therefore 'gross misconduct')? The policies in my workplace state that 'frivolous, vexatious, or malicious allegations' are punishable with up to dismissal without notice. Aren't managers who make defamatory allegations (with questionable evidence - i.e. computer logs on a system where the password is not exclusive) liable to be dismissed for gross misconduct for abuse of power?

    the upside of gross misconduct accusation is that they really must have a clear-cut case, otherwise it can fall through

    Hi, I love the video. Would you be able to tell me who did it for you? We are looking to get some videos done in our workplace to explain our companies procedures and this format would be exactly what we are looking for. Thanks!

    Can the person who did the investigation also do the fact finding exercise?

    Suspending with pay may seem inappropriate but for as long as an employee under investigation has not been found guilty of anything, there is no reason NOT to pay him or her because the presumption of innocence ought to apply. The example of James Forcillo, an ex-police constable ("PC"), should serve as being instructive as to how an organization should deal with an employee accused of wrongdoing. He was in 2013 accused of killing a young man armed with a knife, would be convicted early in 2016 of attempted murder and sentenced to prison time later that year for the same. After his sentence his then-employer, the Toronto Police Service, changed his suspension from one with pay to being one without because it wanted to do so and was permitted, under the Police Services Act of the relevant Canadian province (Ontario), to do so. He would early in 2018 lose the 1st appeals of his conviction and sentence and later the same year lost his applications to the Supreme Court of Canada for leave to appeal either the sentence for attempted murder or the conviction for the same offence. He would resign from the Toronto Police Service before a disciplinary hearing could be conducted although there's a good chance the PC would've been dismissed because of his on-the-job conduct.
