Managing Disciplinary and Grievance Issues
This collection helps employers and HR teams deal with disciplinary, grievance, capability, suspension, dismissal, and appeal issues using practical employment templates and guidance.
It brings together the documents most often needed when workplace problems arise, helping users move from the initial issue through investigation, formal action, outcome, and appeal with greater consistency.
Employment Templates for Disciplinary, Grievance, and Appeal Processes
The content is organised around the employee relations issues employers most commonly need to manage.
That includes grievance procedures, misconduct and gross misconduct, suspension and precautionary action, poor performance, qualification or licence concerns, and appeals against disciplinary action or dismissal.
Find the Right Documents Faster
The collection is organised to help you identify the relevant documents by issue and by process stage.
So whether you are dealing with a grievance, investigating misconduct, considering suspension, handling poor performance, or managing an appeal, you can move more quickly to the documents most likely to be relevant.
- grievance and complaint documents for employee concerns and workplace disputes;
- misconduct documents covering investigation, informal action, hearings, and warnings;
- gross misconduct documents where dismissal may be under consideration;
- suspension and precautionary action documents while matters are investigated;
- capability and poor performance documents;
- documents for issues involving qualifications, licences, or disqualification from driving; and
- appeal documents, together with supporting policies and guidance.
Built Around Real HR Decision Points
This collection is designed to reflect how these issues arise in practice. You may be starting with a new grievance, investigating suspected misconduct, deciding whether suspension is appropriate, moving to a formal hearing, or dealing with an appeal after a warning or dismissal.
The structure helps users identify the next likely document in the process without wading through material that does not apply.
Supporting Fair and Defensible Workplace Procedures
Disciplinary and grievance matters should be handled carefully to reduce the risk of inconsistent treatment and allegations of unlawful discrimination, constructive dismissal, or procedurally unfair dismissal.
Used together, these documents help employers improve process consistency, communication, and record-keeping across workplace investigations, hearings, decisions, and appeals.
