Save your business £19,500

An effective grievance procedure will prevent you from being taken to an employment tribunal.  In a sexual harassment case this year an employee was awarded £19,500 by an employment tribunal.

Our experienced and specialist HR consultants have shared their three top tips on how to prevent a grievance ever being raised.

Their three top tips include:

1.  Policies and procedures

Ensure that there are policies and procedures in place to provide both your company and your employees protection against disputes.

2.  Training managers

Provide managers with training so tricky situations are resolved before they escalate.

3.  Communication

A workplace culture of openness prevents conflicts from misunderstandings.
