Or, he's really Walter Mitty.

You spelt Suity wrong!

So he was accused, wanted to quit in protest, but couldn't because of the contract. They then offered redundancy but with no redundancy payment so they could sweep it under the carpet, he didn't agree to that, so now they have suspended him?

So, you signed a contract for 12 months that you wanted to get out of early (post 1), then after being there for nine months you were facing redundancy and asking if you were entitled to a pay out (post 2). And now, you've been suspended, based on a false accusation.

You don't have much luck, do you

They could just dismiss you during your probationary period, if you are employed, without recourse.

Look to your contract and the company grievance procedures. Hint : ask HR department.

You certainly don't appear to be a contractor.

I had suspended from my job as a career, accused by a colleague of treating a resident roughly an accusation I deny. Just tell me what my next step is

Grievance and Disciplinary Procedure

By legal advice, there should be a grievance and disciplinary procedure for you to follow. You should either check in your contract of employment or ask your manager. It will usually be required for you to go through any internal procedure first, before taking any other legal action.

And put this one in General?

No.

I'll just tell the OP to go to the Citizens Advice Bureau.

Citizens Advice  - the charity for your community

Finish him off properly next time?

Blame it on Matthew Swilson. I heard it was him.

[VectraMan]

I had a colleague who went into a careers advice centre and asked if he could see someone for some careers advice. Of course they told him that it was a carers advice centre. Doh!

True story.

Use the time off to brush up on your English?

[SteelyDan]

Probably best that you try CAB, instead of a Contractor forum full of dubious characters...

Move to Stafford?
