Draft ACAS Code of Practice on Discipline and Grievance
July 2008
FDF has responded to the publication by ACAS of the draft statutory Code of
Practice on discipline and grievance which plays a central role in the new
legal
framework.
Employment tribunals will have to take the Code into account when considering
liability in relevant cases but the terms of the Code will also have
considerable
significance because of the discretion being given to tribunals to adjust
compensation for non-compliance with them.
Our response also contains comments on the proposed non-statutory ACAS guidance
on handling discipline and grievances at work, designed to supplement the Code.
