I am not a boss, but I would have to believe that your boss did not take your allegations serious and him transferring you instead of reprimanding the male employee was playing favorites, and wrong. I believe you have a strong sexual harassment case on your hands, if you can prove it. Good luck.

The boss was unprofessional because he shouldn't have shared w/ the colleagues. He didn't take it seriously and transferred the complainant because the complainer is a "troublemaker". Unfortunately, as victimized as you might have been you will never be anything but a troublemaker. As a female you are supposed to accept harrassment in all forms and if you don't they just label you a B*tch and blame you. Instead of the man learning from his mistakes and accepting maybe he shouldn't have done what he did.This is the reason lawyers were put on this earth to help the little people who get victimized

In the hospital where I worked we had cases of harassment where the Employer was both indiscrete with the information and flippant with the resolution. Do you have a union?
From the sound of things I doubt it, because a shop steward would have straightened things out for you. If you do not work in a union shop you should consult a human rights attorney, because it sounds like you have been discriminated against.

If you told your colleagues that's one thing, but your boss telling your colleagues is a right to privacy and confidentiality issue. Your boss broke the law.

It's imperative that if you file a complaint of sexual harassment with your company that they immediately launch an investigation. There can be serious implications if you suffer an adverse job action as a result of your complaint. You should contact the US Department of Labor to protect your rights.
