I've got a dispute - how do I resolve it?
When it comes to dispute resolution, there are many available options. Choosing the right option for your dispute is crucial to ensuring you can resolve your dispute in the most time and cost effective manner.

To raise a personal grievance, employees usually need to inform their employer within 90 days of when the issue happened or when they found out about it (whichever is later).

This amendment changes the usual time limit for raising a personal grievance to 12 months for sexual harassment, rather than 90 days.
