Can you be fired for harassment without knowledge of a complaint till the day of being fired? If you get taken in and told an employee said you made her uncomfortable and also picking up something that fell and she is saying that she didn't want help to the employee? An employee that was investigated noted that they never were told that by said employee. Also, the employee has a lawsuit with workman's comp. Told there was an investigation done without their knowledge of any of this, fires you on the spot. Also, what could be said employees do after filing a grievance?

This is exactly why the grievance procedure is so important. Take your discharge like an adult, file a grievance with your steward and request the company's evidence. If you are innocent of any wrongdoing, it will wash out from statements and investigation. Be thankful that you belong to a union and have the right to push back when wronged. I imagine you were discharged under Art 17(i), the catch all language. gl

Can you please write this so everyone can understand what you are asking instead of being cryptic? You have left something out. You have already posted about the incident in a public forum, so the other person already knows you posted it on this forum.

Just saying....

Pretty bad when you can be fired without absolute evidence. What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty?

Any witnesses?
Any video?

Is it a she said she said?

I'd file a grievance of course and if you lose file a wrongful termination lawsuit.
