    Yes just one guy it would seem. When he came to me with his mate, I just thought ok let!!!8217;s deal with this. He said he was feeling harassed by her and didn!!!8217;t want to end up treating her poorly and then her put a harassment claim in against him or something like that.

    Where as what he really meant was Ive been leading her on only the wife has caught on and I need to get it sorted quick without it looking like it was me in the wrong

    So he's outright lied to get himself out of an awkward situation and jeopardised his female co-workers career in the process. I'd fire him.

    Not really

    A profuse apology to the female

    A disciplinary for the male

    And a memo to all staff reminding them that its a place of work and to keep it professional

    Believe it or not, I'm actually starting to feel a little bit sorry for you. The male employee in question has stitched you up like a kipper :rotfl:
