So basically, there's a child sx offender that works at my job. As a CSA survivor, this made me extremely uncomfortable finding out about this. I told my manager about it and not only did he not know, he didn't care either.
I told my immediate coworkers that have kids, because I feel like they have a right to know, but the word has spread around to the majority of the store. Our management's response is “if you don't like it, get another job”.
I have an inkling that HR might not know about this, as he had the job before he was convicted. If I call HR, can I be fired for this? I understand that its an anonymous call, but management is already eyeing me because they think I spread the word to the other departments when I didn't, I only told the coworkers that work next to me.
I'm just really nervous and uncomfortable with this whole situation, because I've never had to deal with something like this, and this job is extremely kind to me otherwise — it pays well, management is nice to me, and I'm on path to a promotion even. But this is just a lot to handle.
Censoring the obvious because I don't know reddit's rules on auto-flagging this type of thing.
EDIT:
- The store has a kid's department.
- He only got probation. He is still on probation. That is my biggest concern, we had to find out from the registry. He is technically in violation of his probation.
I will be deleting this soon, since this is the wrong sub. But I don't want anyone to think I'm discriminating against a convicted pedophile. He is still serving his time and he's working around children. That is my biggest concern.
