We are a start up based in Karnataka, India with less than 20 employees. One of our founding partner has been involved in extramarital relation with an employee who is just a 22 year girl. Even after repeated attempts to communicate the unethical behavior we have been ignored and things have only gotten worse. They go out post lunch walks where people have seen them being romantic with each other. Pick and drop favors have been noticed by almost every employees in the office. Other than that they have been spending time outside working hours. Wife did reach out sensing things were different with him lately. However, he did convince her that they are just good friends. They have been the talk of the town. We are a small organization and this is giving a very wrong message to the entire company. We are unable to move legally since POSH can’t be implemented here. We did have verbal communication with both parties and they have been denying any relationship. Now this Director has history of being behind females trying to message them late nights with an intention to start a romantic relationship. But no one is willing to come forward with it.
