I am currently on short-term disability leave. I submitted a workplace harassment and violence complaint to the company's HR and would like to clarify something with the respondent before the negotiated resolution meeting. May I email my question directly to the respondent, or do I need to send it to HR and ask HR to forward it? I would prefer to send it directly, but I’m not sure if that’s permitted under the applicable laws or policies. Thank you!
It is likely better if HR intermediates the correspondence between you and the person you complained about. Feel free to contact us to book a consultation for a more in-depth discussion about how to manage the correspondence and your participation in the complaint during your medical leave.
