While the county does not want to stifle an employee’s right to bring good faith complaints of harassment or sexual harassment in any way, the county also recognizes that false accusations of harassment and sexual harassment can have a serious effect on innocent men and women. Accusations which, after investigation, are determined to be intentionally false, or otherwise malicious in intent may result in appropriate disciplinary action against the accuser.
