My wife has been subjected to workplace serial bullying by a fellow employee for a number of years. This finally lead to a breakdown leaving her unable to work and under doctors care. She required extensive specialist and hospital recovery care. She is now 99% recovered but cannot return to work because the perpetrator has not been told to correct her behavior. Because the offender is a serial bully. she would clearly offend again leaving my wife vulnerable to her unacceptable behavior once again.
An independent investigator, initiated by the employer, overwhelming substantiated my wife's claims. The investigator also found that all employees agreed that this individual poisons the workplace and they had personal experiences of the perpetrators bullying behavior. The immediate supervisor was also intimidated by this person and took no action.
The case, brought to the attention of management, in a detailed written letter 10 months ago seems to have stagnated.
I might add that we have been told by the union this could be a precedent setting case. Meanwhile my wife remains unpaid and has to pay for all her health and benefit costs.
My wife and I would like to have a dialogue with a knowledgeable individual to discuss her options.
Thanks
