    No, you don't know what your talking about.
    "robust management" :mad:
    "Harassment as defined in the Equality Act 2010 is
    Unwanted conduct related to a relevant protected characteristic, which has the purpose or effect of violating an individual’s dignity or creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for that individual.
    Behavior that is considered bullying by one person may be considered firm management by another. Most people will agree on extreme cases of bullying and harassment but it is sometimes the ‘grey’ areas that cause most problems. It is good practice for employers to give examples of what is unacceptable behavior in their organisation and this may include:

    ● spreading malicious rumours, or insulting someone by word or behaviour
    ● copying memos that are critical about someone to others who do not need
    to know
    ● ridiculing or demeaning someone – picking on them or setting them up
    to fail
    ● exclusion or victimisation
    ● unfair treatment
    overbearing supervision or other misuse of power or position :T
    ● unwelcome sexual advances – touching, standing too close, display of
    offensive materials, asking for sexual favours, making decisions on the
    basis of sexual advances being accepted or rejected
    ● making threats or comments about job security without foundation
    ● deliberately undermining a competent worker by overloading and constant
    criticism
    ● preventing individuals progressing by intentionally blocking promotion or
    training opportunities."

    I have a date with a judge and I'll let you know what she thinks, after.

    Given that, in your own words you "desperately need help" you are not going the right way about getting any!

    You are clearly only capable of seeing what you want to see and rush to dismiss anybody who has a different view.

    If it is so obvious why did your well know firm of solicitors not progress it? Or are they idiots too?

    Maybe you were subjected to what would legally constitute harassment, sadly some people are. However far more people mistakenly think they have been, when in fact their employer's behaviour was perfectly lawful.

    I'm out!
