I received a letter indicating that a complaint had been lodged against me about an incident that happened 10 days prior. The incident was not included in the letter. I was told by my boss (managing director) that they could not talk to me about the issue, that I could take what I needed to work from home for the remainder of the week and that I would be contacted by the person conducting the investigation. Almost 24 hours later, I received an email letter confirming that an external investigator will be contacting me about events that happened on said date - and attached was the company violence and harassment policy. The incident was not described. I replied with a request for a timeline of when to expect the call. I have an idea of what the incident was and am absolutely gutted by how they chose to address the issue. I worked with my boss - who witnessed the event and the other person who is also in a leadership position for several days afterwards and nothing was brought to my attention.
I am trying to work from home but my role is heavy in admin and finance with hard copies of everything, filing and creating project folders. I have been working in the office full-time since Dec 2020 and this is the first time being asked to work from home. Aside from how the news of the investigation was handled, how realistic is my working from home in an office manager role?
