The Employment Law & HR Podcast

This episode of the podcast is the first in a mini series focusing on Grievances and how to deal with them.

There will be at least a further 3 episodes on this topic finishing with an episode on Frequently Asked Questions so if you have a question that you would like covered please email me alison@realemploymentlawadvice.co.uk or leave a comment below.

In this episode I will cover:

  • Why it is important to identify a grievance even when it may not be obvious!
  • The importance of handling grievances well.
  • The impact and potential legal consequences of failing to deal with grievances correctly.
  • The starting point for any employer when considering grievances.

Action Points

  1. Have a good internal grievance procedure;
  2. Ensure that managers and HR personnel are aware of how to spot and deal with grievances.
  3. Seek advice and expert support at the earliest opportunity if a dispute arises.
