How to handle this situation
One of my female employees complained to me that she was sexually harassed by a male coworker. Basically someone was making uncomfortable remarks about her physical attributes.
In our employee booklet, it has clear rules for all types of harassment. Simply put, it is not tolerated.
The problem is, the accused is denying it 100% and was very aggressive when I asked for his side of the story. He strongly believes she was lying 100% in order to get him fired.
No witnesses, just he said, she said.
The lack of witnesses and conflict of information makes me stuck on how to proceed.
