Invitation to Grievance meeting template
Whilst many grievances can be addressed informally by your employee’s manager or other member of management, if your employee is dissatisfied with the outcome, they may raise a formal grievance.
In this case, you (the employer) should deal with it formally under the formal grievance procedure. Once you’ve assigned a grievance manager to conduct the hearing, you should send your employee a formal invitation to grievance meeting letter which documents the date, time and location of the meeting and sometimes details the format of the meeting will take so that your employee knows what to expect.
You can use this template to write to your employee giving them reasonable notice of the date and time of the grievance hearing in accordance with your Grievance Policy. Non-statutory ACAS Guidance suggests that ideally the hearing should be within 5 days of receipt of the grievance.
