Disciplinary and Grievance Procedures - Revised Code of Practice ready for Parliamentary approval

Written by Ian Congreave - Filed under: Discipline and Grievances on November 17th, 2008

The Acas revised Code of Practice on discipline and grievance has been approved by the Secretary of State for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform. Before the Code comes into effect on 6 April 2009 it requires Parliamentary approval and it remains a “draft” until that approval is obtained.

In revising the Code, Acas held a public consultation in May 2008. It received over 170 responses from a wide variety of organisations and individuals which informed the revision process. A summary of the comments received and the changes that were made to the original version as a result of those comments is available on the Acas website.
