Handling Employee Grievances and Discipline - EON Training
Grievance may be any genuine or imaginary feeling of dissatisfaction or injustice, which an employee experiences about his job and its nature, management policies and procedures, and their related matters. Such feelings must be expressed by the employee and brought to the notice of the management and the organisation in accordance with acceptable procedures.
At the same time, and just as important, is the need to correct employees who have broken any established or implied rules and expectations. This helps to establish and ensure a stable sense of integrity and culture in the organisation.
