A Gauteng health employee who had laid a sexual harassment complaint against her manager says she was shocked to find that the alleged perpetrator was cleared of any wrongdoing in a disciplinary process that she had not even been part of.
The 56-year-old administrative clerk at Steve Biko Hospital said a report compiled after an investigation into her complaint had recommended the man be charged with sexual harassment and be suspended while the Gauteng department of health investigates.
However, the report was later declared null and void without her knowledge, and she later learned a disciplinary process had been held and the man cleared.
