GRIEVANCE’S POLICY - PROCEDURE

____________________________

GRIEVANCE’S POLICY - PROCEDURE

  1. Purpose of the procedure/Introduction
____________________________ aim is to ensure that employees with a grievance relating to their employment can use a procedure which can help to resolve grievances as quickly and as fairly as possible.

  1. Informal discussions
If an employee has a Grievance about their employment they should discuss it informally with an immediate supervisor. We hope that the majority of concerns will be resolved this way.

  1. Stage 1 – Statement of Grievance
If the Employee feels that the matter has not been resolved through informal discussions, they should put your grievance in writing to immediate Supervisor.

  1. Stage 2 – The Grievance Meeting
Within 1 working day the Supervisor will respond, in writing, to the statement, inviting the Employee to attend a Meeting where the alleged Grievance can be discussed. This Meeting should be scheduled to take place as soon as possible and normally in 3 working days notice of this meeting will be provided to the Employee.

Employees must take all reasonable steps to attend the meeting, but if for any unforeseen reason the employee, or the employer, can’t attend, the meeting must be rearranged. The time limits may be extended by mutual understanding.

After the meeting the Supervisor hearing the grievance must write to the Employee informing them of any decision or action. This letter should be sent within 1 working day of the “Grievance Meeting”.

  1. Step 3 – Appeal
If the matter is not resolved to the Employees Satisfaction they must set out their grounds of appeal in writing within 3 working days of receipt of the decision letter.  

Within 1 working day of receiving an “Appeal Letter”, Supervisor should receive a written invitation to attend an “Appeal Meeting”. The Appeal Meeting should be taken by a more Senior Manager not involved in the original Meeting.

After the Appeal Meeting the Senior Manager must inform the Employee in writing of their decision within 1 working day of the Meeting.

Their decision will be final.
