Anybody put in a grievance or been to the union about this then?

[footman]

yes this what the meeting was about a formal grievance union union included

[Red Robbo]

Grievance is about terms & conditions, should it not be the bullying & harassment procedure ???

[hans solo]

charge the barsteward if you have evidence call cops its illegal
take it out of work situation it doesnt matter bullying is illegal
if they did this in street making people cry charges would be brought
go to your local police station and ask to press charges make an official complaint

Yes of course you could use the bullying and harrassment route.
But a grievance is not only just about term and conditions it can cover most workplace disputes.
A grievance is any concern, problem or complaint that an employee raises with you. It could cover anything from arguments over who washes up the tea mugs to resentment over favouritism or poor management. Grievances relating to changes in working practices, terms and conditions (including pay), and problems over personality clashes are common. Other problem areas are health and safety issues, workplace restructuring or other organisational changes, and discrimination.

Grievances could also be about an employee's relationships with another worker - perhaps on grounds of another worker's personal hygiene, attitude, or capability for the job, or because of bullying or harassment.

It could concern their relationship with clients or customers, or with suppliers, or those they deal with when working at another business's premises.

Seems like a qualification of the job - we have one just like that - gets away with murder!!
