Can I bring a personal grievance for unfair treatment?

Question

Accepted Answer

You can bring a personal grievance if your boss does anything unjustifiable that affects your employment or work conditions in a way that disadvantages you. This could include demoting you, suspending you without pay, withdrawing work, transferring you, giving you an unjustified warning, or withdrawing a benefit such as the use of a company car.
The Employment Relations Authority will look at whether your boss acted in the way a fair and reasonable employer could have. This sort of personal grievance will normally only succeed if it’s about something you were entitled to under your agreement or employment law. It won’t usually succeed if your boss had the choice to give you the benefit or condition.
