If you have reason to believe your employee is sexually harassing her male colleagues, then it is in your best interest to document the incidents and give her written warnings informing her that further misconduct will result in disciplinary action up to and including termination. If she still won’t stop, then you can proceed with firing her while ensuring that all possible steps have been taken to ensure due process according to the law.

It is advisable to consult an employment lawyer before taking any action against your female employee. The lawyer can review the circumstances and advise on a termination strategy that is legal and minimizes the risk of potential legal liability. Additionally, it may be appropriate to provide your employee with documented sexual harassment training, which can decrease the possibility of a future lawsuit related to her claims of workplace discrimination. Moreover, making sure that all personnel involved in the complaint are subjected to disciplinary action will help ensure that similar issues do not arise in the future.
