Disciplinary Hearing

2»

Comments

  • as dmg24 says. the grievance must be in writting so she should hand it in as soon as she possibly can stating exactly what the grievance is.

    I would have thought the investigator would have asked if she had submitted it in writing at the time she mentioned it but thats another matter.

    Hope this isn't too late - but my understanding is that a grievance (submitted correctly and in time) should be dealt with BEFORE any disciplinary hearing.

    (Employers usually think that it is a delaying tactic.... It may well be but equally the issue of the grievance may well have some bearing and should be handled first. I was told this by an employment specialist so I have a little bit of faith in it.)

    Good luck with it.

    Generally yes, but it is still a separate process. Often it is a delaying tactic,but it can be beneficial to the employer if it is found to be a vexatious grievance, as it may be stacked into the disciplinary hearing.
