Disciplinary & Grievance

Disputes or dissatisfaction in the workplace require a forum for resolution.

Recent changes in the law mean that the former statutory procedures and codes set by ACAS for grievance and disciplinary procedures have been superseded by voluntary procedures with guidance from ACAS.

Following these changes a technical breach of procedure which does not affect the substantial fairness or the outcome of the issue will not give rise to automatic unfairness.

Every employer should, however, have a written disciplinary and grievance procedure. We recommend that they are included in a staff handbook.

At Hart Brown we can help with issues including:

  • drafting of staff handbooks
  • drafting of disciplinary procedures
  • drafting of grievance procedures
  • bringing disciplinary proceedings
  • dismissal of an employee
  • dealing with grievances

To speak to someone who can help with disciplinary or grievance issues or any other employment issue call, email or request a call back from one of our specialist lawyers.
