Question: Have been a victum of a false sexual harrassment charge? Many person have had this happen and even if innocent it seems to cost them their jobs. Has this happened to you? What did you?

Answer: First, any company would be obligated to conduct a thorough and fair investigation before terminating you for sexual harassment. Unfortunately, many of these cases end up being a "she said" versus "he said" situation. Since the damages from a female alleging harassment can be more than disciplining or terminating a male employee (especially a white male under 40) companies may err on the side of the female. So, it you are the person charged, make your case. Do you have witnesses? Can you prove that you didn't engage in harassing behavior? Will others vouch for your character? Has the female alleging the harassment have a history of making false allegations? You can see H.R. and ask to make a counter claim if you feel confident you are completely innocent.
