Wrongfully accused of harassment and losing EoS gratuity

Hi,

I need advice. I have been working for the last 30 years, and the last 10 years were with one company.

I have received termination stating harassment while requesting for a face to face check with the people, facts were not disclosed. Now, they have informed me that they'll detain my gratuity amount which I feel I deserve.

Harassment case - it was a complaint raised by few colleagues stating improper touching, which was not the actual case. Hence, received a termination for the same. Never given a chance to speak.

However, I have not been such a person and have not done such a thing in overall 30 years of service.

Now, gratuity has been held considering the harassment clause.

Dear,

Maybe due to a higher amount of gratuity, the company is finding excuses or someone has made the complaint.

Was any warning issued to you prior to the termination? You may claim for your EOSB and file a complaint with the MOL against the employer.

Regards,
