Prepare a factual written concern
Separate pay, performance, discipline, termination, discrimination, leave, safety or other concerns so the request is clear.
Workplace filing and review periods can be short. Record the exact decision and notice dates before spending time on informal correspondence.
Check grievance, payroll, HR, review or appeal procedures and who is authorised to respond.
Set out the key events, relevant records, disputed points and practical outcome requested.
Record meetings, decisions and promised actions, then check the appropriate local agency, tribunal or professional route.
Employment disputes may have short statutory deadlines. GetInstantResolve does not provide legal advice or determine whether workplace conduct was unlawful.
