I was dating this woman (I got her a job at my work) I split up with her (I tried to help her with her addiction) Ever since if I walk past her in the building she runs in the office telling management I said or did something to her when I haven't.
4 times I have been called into the office every time I am found not guilty management check the cameras and ask witnesses.
I do not talk to her or look i do not even mention her.
I only leave the office with another staff member, she works in the warehouse.

@SAMMY1307,
Do you share an HR department? Complain to them and use the 4 cases where she made claims about you and lost all four times.

Even if you don't share an HR department, find her HR department and still report her excessive, errant complaints. Maybe she needs to be transferred or forced into a different work shift that doesn't mesh with yours.

@tsarstepan,
Thanks I have really tried to avoid her I have done everything what i have been asked. But she is gossiping about me to other staff members.

@SAMMY1307,
I'm sure they already realize (or will soon) what a nutter she is.

@SAMMY1307,
Another lesson learned - never mix pleasure with work!

Now that you're in a pickle, you have several options and you should use all
of them and d) as a last resort.

a) avoid her whenever you can
b) involve management and HR
c) consult an attorney regarding defamation of character and slandering
d) look for a different job

Thanks for the good advice. Now I am anxious to walk around the building alone (Outside the office) as she will make stories up again. I have tried to avoid her as much as possible and will not be in a room alone with her. Management have told her not to use the office canteen to use the warehouse canteen but she ignores them and walks into the office canteen. She also lurks around the office door when it is my break times hoping to catch me alone then she will run to management again with stories.
