  • Please can anyone help or can you give me some advice? , I worked for part of a very large company in a pub and have worked for the same company for over 4 years without so much as a warning. 6 months ago a new manager started and seemed fine at first but just before xmas he had said to me , if i wanted to become his assistant manager, i must go underneath his desk, prefrably weraing a school uniform and basically do sex acts, this was said on a couple of occasions but usually upstairs in his office, he also mentioned often that my bottom looked nice in certain trousers. This is a married man of 2 children but at this time they did not live above the pub with him. He drove me 2 go doctors and i was on sick for 4 weeks over xmas, my area manager had spoken 2 me previously and i had mentioned what had been said and he did ask if i wanted to do a grievance but at the time i was on anti depressents through work and my x manager and i just asked if i could transfer to another pub, which was honoured. Not once was i told that i wasnt to talk about anything, so off i went to my new job and obviously i was asked why i had moved so i did say that the manager had said things he sholuldnt have to me, never went into detail. on my 5th day in my new job i went to start my shift and my new manager gave me a letter saying i was suspended for 2 weeks with pay for slander. i was gutted as i didnt really understand what was going on. My x manager had decided to go ahead with a grievance against me for slander. Cut along story short i attended my dissiplinary and was dismissed for gross misconduct. They hadnt even followed procedures as i was not given any statements or any paperwork to look at before hand. Apparently my area manager dismissed me saying ide been given enough time to do a grievence on my x manager and once ide read all statements , between the managers , there was so much false information. have i got a case and if so how do i go about it? , its been 9 days since i was dismissed and i still hav not recieved my letter or who to appeal to.Also i decided to go ahead with my grievence of sexual harassment against my x manager and wrote to the guy above my area manager, i got a reply within 2 days.... i dont want my job back as i dont trust them anymore but i want to know what i can do ??

    Please start a new thread and also put some paragraphs in. thanks.
