I have just been suspended for a post on Facebook, There is no contract only a verbal agreement through an agency to start with.
There has been no information regarding grievence a staff handbook or anything at all except start this day , wages are and hours are I did not even know what holiday they gave.
I have a Facebook which is entirely private or friends only.
Also it does not have work on it or any work colleagues.
It is also in a different name which they do not know.
One of my friends (no longer a friend ) sent my boss my rant Friday which others posted things , it does not mention any names or who they are and no one knows where i work , except one so called friend who i find out since was the major backstabber in another company where i worked with her.
When i got into work weds i was pulled into a meeting involving half the staff and asked if i had posted something.
I admitted i had a conversation with a few friends none of which was public and that the paper he was waving about i could not comment on as some may have been amended and he would not know if they had as it had been made public by someone else by sending it to someone else to then send to my boss.
I was told to get out.
I have not seen this paperwork but are suspended on pay while they investigate.
They have not given me a copy or shown me it.
It is not on the internet and now and i have also culled my friends list of which only two were in our local town and this was never to view by anyone else but friends.
Some of the friends comments were pretty harsh but they were joking about.
What can i do while suspended, i have no sight of the paper sent to him , i cannot investigate whether this was doctored , I have from Wednesday off next week for a holiday can i carry on with my life during the booked holiday time?
There was nothing said about how long or anything i am not allowed to contact employees there's only a few work there.
This means that half there including me in the office and the fact hes mentioned it to others there has in effect made it impossible to return to work.
I am not allowed to contact other people in the office who are of a different company
I am not allowed to talk to any of our clients.
There was no indication how long this would be.
There was indicated that the company would suffer their reputation (but i did not make it public and it is no different to backlashing about work with people outside work) , there is no policy or written information and possibly the time they are spending now is making this to cover themselves.
Can i go out and carry on with life while i am off.
They asked for my address so they could send me the hearing date.
I would not come back while i was on booked leave , will that be an issue
I did apologise that they have seen something private and said although i am sorry you had seen this i am unable to explain anything until i see the document.
I can private message more details of what i said but it was private until another made that a whole different scenario!
I have not quite been there 2 years so i understand job hunting might be in order as i have no real rights before the 2 years
