Racist and threatening behaviour

[jarv2013]

I want advice on my next step as feel i can't go any further.
I was racially and verbally attacked by a colleague in front of the team leader and i took it to a formal grievance hearing. The person admitted to their words on paper and seems to have got away with it. Any other company would have sacked the person on the spot... feel real crap at work but still this person tries to wind me up and feel nothing more i can do.

Usually, a complaint about racial harassment to HR is sufficient. You really need to provide your US state to get a better answer.

What state are you in? Are you in the U.S.? "Sacked" and "behaviour" and the fact that you had anything to complain about leads me to believe you may not be in the states.

If you are in the US, all the law requires is that they make the illegal behavior stop. They are not required by law to fire him. They may; they are not compelled to.

If you are not in the US, you'll have to identify what country you are in. We have one, and only one, expert in Canadian and UK law. Any other country and we cannot assist.

If you're in Canada, let me know. If you're in the UK, post your question on www.swarb.co.uk.
