UNBELIEVABLE!!!! Well that's not exactly true.... guess anything is possible... UNEXCEPTABLE..... there that's better.... totally unexceptable. He's a multiple offender.

As an employee you are entitled to an explanation. To a formal response to your complaint. You have a right to know how his 'repremand' is reflected in the company's policy. What???.... is he on a '6 steps your are out policy' and he's only at step 5 or something!!! Does your company have a 'harassment policy' or are they just flying by the seat of their pants over there.

I'd follow this up. I'd want to know what if anything will happens if he pulls this again or if he gets another complaint from another employee. I'd be rounding up others to lodge complaints if they have cause. I'd image that might be tough given how the company seems to protect offenders... some may not be willing to take the risk in that situation.

Anyways.... I'm steamed and disappointed things aren't getting better in the work place. I work for myself now in part because of 'boy's club' mentalities that make working conditions unsafe and unhealthy for women. I'm a consultant and do a lot of policy development work with companies to promote ethnic and gender equity and fairness issues.

HOpe you are hanging in okay. Please let us know how you are feeling and doing and how we can help hold you up under such pressure and injustice. It's not right.

Be strong..... he will get what is coming to him eventually. We can pray he sees this as a wake up call but from what you've said to us it sounds as though he's been round this one before and gotten away with it.

Prayers are with you Okie.... take care...
