Document background
The Grievance Decision Letter is a critical document in the formal workplace dispute resolution process under England and Wales employment law. It is issued following the completion of a grievance investigation and must be provided within a reasonable timeframe after the final grievance hearing. The letter serves multiple purposes: it formally documents the employer's decision, provides transparency about the investigation process, explains the reasoning behind the conclusion, and outlines the employee's right to appeal. Following ACAS guidelines, the Grievance Decision Letter should be clear, comprehensive, and maintain a professional tone throughout.
