More details to this question:
What are the grounds to take legal action or not in: 1. A co-employee who was actually off on a a certain day came to the workplace screaming and harassing a co-employee regarding a private matter that is not even relevant to the victim. The attack was done in an unprofessional manner. 2. Even after an attempted deescalation, the attacking employee insisted to accuse the victim of creating slander. There is no proof or evidence that the employee victim is even involved of the situation and may be randomly selected. The supervisor refused to inform the authorities. 3. The harassing employee brought the issue of accusing another employee because she believed "her boyfriend's reputation had been compromised." 4. The employee was traumatized and feel threatened in a hostile workplace. 5. The management did not act in a timely manner to address the situation and still retained the harassing employee. What legal grounds are available for the victim in this case?

You may have grounds for suit if the actions of the co-employee were such as to render the workplace unsafe and you complained on that basis......apparently you still continue to work there so there is an issue as to what damages, if any you would have......Stephan Math Esq.
