Employment Law FAQ's
Contracts go far beyond the legal necessity, they provide protection and peace of mind to all parties so everyone knows where they stand.
Well in a nutshell:
Firstly, the employee should raise the grievance in writing.
The employer should hold a meeting and investigate the complaint. At the meeting the employee is legally entitled to be accompanied by a fellow work colleague or a trade union representative if they are a member of a union.
The employee should be given sufficient time to discuss the nature of their grievance, and if appropriate the meeting should be adjourned for further investigations to take place.
After the grievance has been fully investigated a further meeting should be held to enable the employer to communicate its decision; this should also be followed up in writing. If the employee remains unhappy, they have a right of appeal.
