Grievance File All documents, communications and records dealing with the processing of a grievance shall be filed in a separate grievance file, and will not be placed in the personnel file. However, evidence of any discipline imposed and an explanation of the action which resulted in such discipline will be placed in the employee's personnel file.
Disciplinary Procedures The employing authority should ensure that all employees are aware of the disciplinary rules and procedures that apply. All employees should also be aware to whom they can apply if they are dissatisfied with any disciplinary decision. These procedures should accord with legal requirements and with the ACAS Code of Practice and guidance.
