90-day limit for Personal Grievances n/a

Posted 22 June 2015 by Mike Johnson PG, employment agreements, employment relationship problems, 90-day;

A recent court case has highlighted a legislated reason for a personal grievance being able to be raised outside the 90-day limit.  This is where there is no explanation of how to resolve employment relationship problems in the Employment Agreement.

So please be aware if you do not have signed employment agreements with staff or if they do not include an explanation of how and when they can take personal grievances, it can be possible for a PG to be raised well outside the 90-day limit.  In the case reported it was almost a year.

If you need to get agreements put in place give us a call.
