Who would you contact if you have a grievance at work or need guidance and support on an employment issue?

When you have a grievance at work, i think the first person to talk to would be the person you have a grievance against, in order to settle the matter between yourselves. If this is not possible then you should talk to your line manager and get their advice. If this is still not possible then you can go and talk to human resources. If you need guidance and support on an employment issue such as:

* You job.

* Your contractual terms and conditions

* Your contractual or statutory rights

* The way you are being treated at work

You can talk to your line manager to see if the issues can be sorted out informally. If these issues can't be solved between the employer and the employee, it could be useful to bring in a third party from outside of work to help reach an agreement. There are other options in which you can talk to other people, like for example:

* Trade unions

* Employment tribunals and civil courts

* Citizens advice bureau
