Disciplinary and grievances
Disciplinary
Being invited to a disciplinary hearing can be a distressing situation. There is a risk that the disciplinary hearing could result in a formal warning or dismissal or some other sanction being taken (such as reduction in salary or grade).
Our employment team is able to offer advice and assistance throughout the disciplinary process, including preparation for the hearing, analysis of your case and instruction on how to respond to any allegations. Assistance for any subsequent claims arising out of a dismissal can also be provided as well as negotiating any termination of employment.
Grievances
Grievances are best dealt with at an early stage, informally, with the immediate line manager. However, if it cannot be resolved informally it should be dealt with formally. By allowing management to deal with issues it can help to facilitate a resolution to the issues raised.
Employers should have a procedure in place to handle grievances, and this should follow, as best practice, the Acas guide.
Our employment team is able to offer advice and assistance if you have a grievance at work. This could include drafting of the initial grievance, guidance and negotiating, helping with preparation for the hearing, analysis of the grievance response and dealing with any appeal or subsequent tribunal claim.
For further information or assistance please contact Jo Cullen, the Employment Partner on 020 8549 5186 or employment@howell-jones.com.
