Legal Question in Sexual Harassment in Michigan

Charged with sexual harassment

I have a friend who is being charged with sexual harassment in our office. He was indefinately suspended with pay, but has had no chance to explain himself or even been told who is accusing him of sexually harassment and in what circumstances they were under. We believe that he's being set up, can you let me know what the laws and policies are for this case?

The family leave Act gives some other protections. That is why people unionize!!!
