If two co-workers have a slanging match on facebook about another co-worker, digging up their past etc (both slangees have deleted the 3rd co-worker so she cant see, but other co-workers can see it), is this grounds for suspending them both, pending an investigation?
A store i used to work at, a supervisor and a customer service assistant are shagging each other, and they are posting awful remarks about the duty manager on facebook. They have both deleted the duty manager, but another CSA has seen the remarks and told her about it. The remarks are of a bullying nature, and contain information that the duty manager would rather not have everyone know, but clearly she is powerless to remove it from public view.
Could she suspend them herself, or would it require some 3rd party to be present? Just wondered what the rules were in general. She's going to phone HR in the morning. The manager has wanted rid of this particular supervisor for a long time due to periods of sickness, this may be the final straw.
Any advice?
