Summary

Legislation sets standard procedures for handling disputes and grievances. Commonly an employment dispute is referred to as a "dispute about the interpretation, application or operation of an employment contract". Every Employment contract must contain a procedure to handle such disputes. Either party to the contract can invoke this procedure by advising the other party of the basis of the dispute or the solutions sought.

Both parties then meet and discuss the dispute and if no solution is forthcoming, then the dispute can be referred to the Employment Tribunal.
