New Delhi, Usually we see people joking with each other, in which sometimes they slap each other unintentionally. Now the point is whether the next person is comfortable with it or not, it is necessary to go.
One person did not think so, for which he had to pay Rs 90 lakh along with losing his job. It is very important for a person to understand the difference between personal and professional life. Especially when you are working with a woman, it becomes even more important.
A female employee in Ireland was slapped from behind by her manager during work. Before doing this, he hardly thought that his joke would be worth millions.
The woman is from Ireland and was treated this way during a staff meeting. According to a BBC report, his office manager slapped him from behind in the presence of another manager. He was shocked as the manager slapped the woman on her buttocks and asked the other manager if this could happen in the office. On the other hand, the manager and his company took it as a joke and told the same to other employees.
According to a BBC report, the embarrassed woman didn’t tell about it even at her home at first, but later complained about it to the company’s management. After the complaint, the woman did not come to the office until she got justice. On behalf of the company, she was asked for a meeting with the seniors and her manager, but the woman refused.
He did not get any positive response from the office for 10 days and after 5 weeks of investigation, he was told that the woman’s clothes were provocative. However, the Chief Commissioner of Equality Committee treated the case as a case of embarrassment and harassment and awarded him a compensation of 90 lakhs.SS1MS
