The Employee Behavior Employee Complaint Letter is a crucial document in New Zealand's workplace grievance framework, aligned with the Employment Relations Act 2000 and associated employment legislation. This formal communication tool is utilized when an employee needs to report serious misconduct, harassment, discrimination, or other inappropriate workplace behavior that violates company policies or employment laws. The document serves multiple purposes: it creates an official record of the complaint, initiates formal investigation processes, and can be used as evidence in employment proceedings if necessary. The letter should be comprehensive yet professional, including specific details about incidents, their impact on the workplace, and desired outcomes. Typically used after informal resolution attempts have failed, this document represents a critical step in New Zealand's formal grievance resolution process and may be referenced in Employment Relations Authority proceedings if the matter escalates.
