Hey, I'm new here, but I would appreciate anyone's valid info. I just found out another employee is spreading lies and rumors about me. She is telling everyone, including people in management, that I am a druggie, and that I am sleeping with a male co-worker. Both are lies. What is Albertson's policy regarding defamation? Is this something that would be investigated seriously if I were to call the hotline? If not, what, if anything, can be done about this? You have to understand also that the store I work in is in a very small town where management, including the store director, have been known to turn the other cheek when it comes to dealing with things like this. Any input would be appreciated!
