Collective grievances

[ch 7: page 82]

The Acas Code does not apply to collective grievances (those raised on behalf of two or more employees by a union or other workplace rep) and states that these should be handled in accordance with the organisation’s collective grievance process. See Chapter 8 for more on collective grievances.
