Letter or email template for an employee raising a grievance

Insert and delete* the words that are right for your own case.

Dear Pete

I am writing to raise a formal grievance.

I have a problem with the behaviour of senior management.

I have raised these informally, but I do not feel they were resolved, and the behaviour is ongoing.

Gillian Iredale and Kyle Allison continue to behave in a way that contravenes the “Dignity and
Respect in the Workplace” document.

I have been excluded from meetings, and from the management group on wire prior to my
resignation. When I told Gillian I was leaving IMSL, she proceeded to criticise my work (I can provide

yet. Although Gillian did re-instate me after I requested this.

I have also been excluded from

As you know, Kyle Allison sent me a “Whatsapp” message which included discriminatory language in
relation to my bowel surgery. Whilst you spoke to me, and set up “Wire”, I received no apology
from Kyle Allison.

I have evidence in the form of logs of Gillian monitoring my activity on the VNC, transcript of cochat
log backups and screenshots of co

Because of these actions, I no longer feel IMSL is a safe place to work and I sort employment
elsewhere.

I have

I would be grateful if you could let me know when I can meet you to talk about my grievance. I
