Training Session – Disciplinary & Grievance

Join us for this half day session in which we will help you get to grips with how to handle disciplinary and grievance issues.

This session is aimed at anyone with responsibility for dealing with disciplinary and/or grievance matters in the workplace. Whether you are a manager, business owner or HR professional, we will ensure that we bring you up to date on the law in this area, give you a better understanding of the procedural requirements, and give you confidence in dealing with any disciplinary and grievance issues that may arise in your organisation.

The course will be delivered by our team of experienced employment lawyers, and will be run in an interactive round table format. The course will involve a variety of activities, including case studies and some role-play. Delegate numbers are strictly limited to ensure that everyone has the opportunity ask questions, share experiences and gain maximum benefit from the event.

The course will cover all the key points, including:

• Informal chat or formal disciplinary action?
• Your organisation’s disciplinary and grievance procedures
• Dealing with employees with short service
• The ACAS Code of Practice – why it matters
• The disciplinary and grievance processes: investigation, hearing, appeal
• Who undertakes the various stages
• Investigations
• The invitation to the hearing and the ‘paper trail’
• The hearing itself
• The outcome and communicating it
• The appeal and communicating the outcome
• The right to be accompanied
• How to avoid ending up in an Employment Tribunal!
• Tricky scenarios that might arise
