Hello,
I was contacted by my manager today and told I would be stood down pending an investigation into multiple accusations of me spreading information I overheard - email cut off, access closed off etc.
Apparently the information related to a women I have never met. They would not tell me anymore (it’s of a commercial nature I believe not gender related).
The accusation isn’t true. I do recall hearing someone talking about an incident in the lunch room, but I did not discuss or communicate the information in anyway. I’m joining the dots here because I really don’t know what it is.
I believe one of the people involved previously raised a complaint against me for mistreating her verbally at work. The complaint was dismissed, but the relationship has never been the same.
Her complaint was generated after I queried an accounting issue, suspicious transaction - she took offense to my query.
I want to know what I should do. I am surprised I could be stood down just by a phone call or provided no rights. The previous complaint did not afford me any rights to respond or be involved in the process.
Appreciate any advice.
