We have plenty of adult clubs in Oregon - they advertise on the radio mind you - where I hear the entertainers are topless, if not bottomless pretty much the entire time the places are open.
memphisims, How did the "concerned ee" know or suspect what the fellow ee was doing? If it's just rumors, it is tough to deal with, but...
In my past life in hotels, an ee walked in on a housekeeper "servicing" a guest in the guest laundry room. I wasn't in HR at the time, but it's my understanding the HR person got a written statement from the witness, asked the housekeeper for her side of the story. The housekeeper apparently didn't deny it and was termed.
This wasn't even a casino, although I suppose there may have been the clinking of coins in the coin-op laundry machines. Almost as effective as Barry White. x:)
I definitely would investigate, at least to determine whether you are dealing with reliable info or just one employee who has a bone to pick with another...
I disagree, Don. I don't think that the subject is being made light of (although I think I just ended that sentence with a preposition - forgive me, Ray). However, given the facts as presented I think that a full-blown, ballpoint-pens-drawn, tape-recorded-interviews, aggressive, Remember-The Alamo type of inquiry is more disruptive than a discreet inquiry. Find out what you can (if there are witnesses, they can be found) and if there is corroborating evidence (especially from things such as surveillance cameras, lock logs, etc.) you can quietly make something like this go away without jeopardizing the reputation or dignity of both the accused and the hotel - minimizing the subsequent gossip among the remaining staff. The accused isn't going to want to make an issue of it, neither is the "client", nor is the hotel. Just my thoughts.
"A concerned ee has come forward claiming a fellow ee has been selling sexual favors to other ee's and guests on our property"
At this point, Don D, we don't know that the employee in question is actually doing what they are accused of. (oops - it's contagious, Pook...) MY point was, find out how reliable the information is first: is it truly rumor? Did somebody actually witness something?
The employee deserves to be treated with dignity, particularly when we don't yet know whether she's done anything wrong.
