Grievances
Contents
What are grievances?
Grievances are concerns, problems or complaints that employees raise with their employers. In this section we cover:
- The basics;
- The role of grievance procedures;
- How to deal with a grievance; and
- The appeals process.
Employment Tribunals
If a grievance can't be resolved, an employee could make a claim against you at an Employment Tribunal. We have sections that can help you understand and prepare for the process, covering:
- the role of early conciliation;
- the types of claims and rules involved in Employment Tribunals;
- the steps to expect before a tribunal hearing; and
- what to expect at the final hearing.
