Although some employers don't realise they are doing it, or even if they do realise, there is an inability to see beyond the "the customer is always right" ethos. An allegation against an employee nearly always puts the employee in the wrong from the start. Innocent until proved guilty does not apply here. I know this is a very negative outlook, however it seems to be more and more common. It's almost as if customer care has negated any responsibility to give an employee the benefit of the doubt. There has to be a happy medium.

Any falsehood is going to be to the detriment of the subject and especialy easy in a school environment when a manager wants to punish a member of teaching staff and introduces a potential 'child protection' safety issue.
Luckily, this teacher who was alerted to the problem by a personal e-mail in the form of a reprimand (cc to county) was on another site that day and made that known to others -
It has however, just served to embarrass the manager and bring bullying culture to a head as others who had stayed quiet and watched four other members of staff leave over the years finally complain.
