REPORT OF INVESTIGATION
15. GENERAL
15.1 On the basis of the investigation I have conducted there is no evidence to support the complaint of harassment made by Wigglesworth.
15.2 However, there is a question as to whether or not Wigglesworth’s grievance could have been heard at an early stage by the second ACFO, Mr Tinley. This in itself may not have stopped this harassment complaint but would have been seen in another forum as positive action by management to be fair to the employee. As things stand the grievance is still unanswered. I am informed by ACFO Seager that this is because the disciplinary regulations preclude its further progress for the moment.
15.3 With regard to medical referrals I would recommend that Fire Service officers refrain from being involved in this process. They should consider entrusting this responsibility solely with the Human Resources Manager.
14.1 Taking into account all of the recent events involving Wigglesworth and his sceptical view and expectation of further abuse considerable care needs to be given to his return to work and future management, to avoid any accusations of victimisation.
