Dear all
I am a middle manager in a company. Sorry not to be more specific but you will see why. Recently the work pressure has become chronic and many people are feeling the strain. Totally separate to this over the last 2 months 3 female staff members have approached me to say they are feeling extremely uncomfortable about a senior male colleague. I cannot go into details however inappropriate comments, looks and advances have been reported. I have absolutely no jurisdiction over any of these people indeed I am not in their department. I presume although I don't know I have been approached because it is widely known I have a good knowledge of employment law and am discreet. However the 3 women in question have said they are not willing to make statements as they fear the consequences for them. I have no doubt that they are all telling the truth. The colleague in question has an extremely unusual manner and while I cannot yet prove thelse allegations there are too many similarities in the reports for there to be nothing in it. So, I am left trying to support my female colleagues while not currently having the wherewithal to strike.
