Information

A personal grievance is a claim made by an employee, typically due to an issue in the employment relationship. This often happens when an employee feels they have been unjustifiably dismissed or unfairly disadvantaged. Employees have 90 days to notify their employer about the issue, either from when it occurred or when it was first brought to their attention. After this time, the employer is generally not obligated to consider the grievance, unless exceptional circumstances apply.
