Laughing at someone falling over is not harassment
All allegations of harassment should be thoroughly investigated – but not all claims have grounds on the basis of misconduct, as this recent case proves.
The rules surrounding complaints of harassment are complex, not least because they need to take into account instances of discrimination and workplace bullying in line with the Equality Act 2010. If you are an employee who would like advice on how to move a claim forward – or, indeed, if you are an employer concerned about being taken to tribunal by a member of staff – speak with the team here at Little Rock Employment Law today on 01245 261883 for help navigating any tricky situation.
