A grievance can be damaging to your business both in monetary and reputational terms
Grievances can be difficult to manage and extremely time consuming once you become involved in matters such as:
- Investigations including gathering witness statements if necessary;
- Preparing relevant documentation;
- Holding grievance hearings and any subsequent investigatory meetings and
- Providing a comprehensive written response.
All of this takes time.
