Grievance

The term ’Grievance’ is usually used in HR concerning the relationship between an employer and an employee. When an employee has issues and complains regarding the workplace, environment, policy, colleague, or management, this employee concern is known as employee grievance. It mainly defines the dissatisfaction of an employee that he/she experiences at the workplace.

It is the employer’s responsibility to provide a healthy and safe work culture to each employee. An employee spends around 50% of his/her life at the workplace. Though most of the time grievance occurs due to lack of communication and a non-friendly work environment. The most common types of grievances at workplaces in India are:

• Salary or Pay
• Bullying or Disrespect received from colleagues
• Workload
• Work Environment
• Irrelevant Work Assignments
