Disciplinary and Grievance Procedure and Letters for Household Employers
About this document
Disciplinary and grievance issues are especially difficult in a family home, where the working relationship is personal. Following a simple fair process, based on the Acas Code of Practice, protects both sides. Tribunals can increase compensation by up to 25% if an employer unreasonably fails to follow the Code.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
