my friend filed a complaint on her male collegue to the HR , the complaint was of simple nature and in the initial complaint there is nothing mentioned about s*xual harassment, but the HR has converted that into s*xual harassment complaint and called the guy to give his version of the story within 10 days. the HR served him legal noticies under prevention of s*xual harassment at workplace bill. i got to know that the guy had issues with the management in the past. the HR is asking the guy to resign from the company.the guy has gone to the police.
did the HR do the right thing by converting the complaint into s*xual harassment complaint when the issue could have been solved internally ?
is the guy doing the right thing by going to police ?
