HR Policies
Share on:
When an employee feels respected and valued they feel motivated and engaged at work. However, the sad truth is that sometimes employment relationships break down and can get ugly, leading to significant issues and even legal action. No one wants employment relationships to become toxic or litigious but if and when that happens, it's best to be prepared. If you're an employer or business owner in New Zealand, you need to know what actions may lead to potential personal grievance claims.

It is about personal interactions, toxic behaviours, challenging atmosphere, and even harassment or discrimination. Do you know what a personal grievance claim entails? Do you have policies and processes to handle a personal grievance claim? Is your business prepared?
