They SHOULD have to be convicted or take a plea before they are allowed to take action. I realize thst is not the world we live in but this is the entire reason we have a justice system.
Also contrary to popular belief the age of consent in almost every state is not 18. In this case the accuser was 17. 21 vs 17 is rarely a statutory case in most states, which should make sense to anyone who was that age before.

Do you hold this position for:
Embezzlement?
Sleeping on the job? (Clearly theft)
Consistently having a light drawer? (again theft)
Not performing job duties do to being on your phone? (more theft)
I think employment at the will of the employer doesn’t provide adequate protection for workers.
I think requiring a criminal conviction to dismiss an employee, which you strongly advocate, makes holding employees accountable impossible. This is too liberal for me.
Is there a middle ground where employees can be dismissed with documentation of cause? Also, RIF actions have transparency? This is where I am at.
Or do you consider accusations of sexual abuse to be under a special protection?
