So he can do it all again to another colleague when he likes...... Does it go on his record at least, what are your experiences if you have taken out a grievance against a manager and is it worth anything ????????
not worth a wa*k the procedure only occupied a lot of my time for the deciding manager to completely undermine the whole process
Confused... You won't be, after the next episode of. SOAP

Hmmm I think the procedure is there just as a paper exercise to make us lot feel there is fair treatment for all, but what's the point of any procedure, if when a perpetrator is found guilty of whatever offence they are only recommended to change there ways :no no :no no ...... Would it be okay if they treated all posties who are conduct coded with the same toothless discipline, I don't think that one will take off :cuppa

[I have just had the same problem as everyone else it seems. I get shafted about my contract, make a complaint then it goes up to stage 3 and then I get accused of being a lying and violent person. They completely turned the tables on me to cover it up. What do people do after stage 3 conclusion. I cant believe the amount of collusion and lying by senior staff within RM. The office I worked in had too many people up the managers arse and they were they only ones that were interviewed! its frightening.
