Q. What is grievance? How it is handled by different
organisation give example.
A grievance is a formal complaint that is raised by an employee towards an
employer within the workplace. There are many reasons as to why a grievance
can be raised, and also many ways to go about dealing with such a scenario.
Reasons for filing a grievance in the workplace can be as a result of, but not
limited to, a breach of the terms and conditions of an employment contract,
raises and promotions, or lack thereof, as well as harassment and employment
discrimination.

The manager should immediately identify all grievances and must take
appropriate steps to eliminate the causes of such grievances so that the
employees remain loyal and committed to their work. Effective grievance
management is an essential part of personnel management. The managers should
adopt the following approach to manage grievance effectively-

1. Quick action- As soon as the grievance arises, it should be identified and


resolved. Training must be given to the managers to effectively and timely
manage a grievance. This will lower the detrimental effects of grievance on
the employees and their performance.
2. Acknowledging grievance- The manager must acknowledge the grievance
put forward by the employee as manifestation of true and real feelings of
the employees. Acknowledgement by the manager implies that the
manager is eager to look into the complaint impartially and without any
bias. This will create a conducive work environment with instances of
grievance reduced.
3. Gathering facts- The managers should gather appropriate and sufficient
facts explaining the grievance’s nature. A record of such facts must be
maintained so that these can be used in later stage of grievance redressal.
4. Examining the causes of grievance- The actual cause of grievance should
be identified. Accordingly remedial actions should be taken to prevent
repetition of the grievance.
5. Decisioning- After identifying the causes of grievance, alternative course of
actions should be thought of to manage the grievance. The effect of each
course of action on the existing and future management policies and
procedure should be analyzed and accordingly decision should be taken by
the manager.
