Where to go when you have a problem with your manager?

[dinoworld]

When you exhaust everything? Grievance - wasn't withheld, appealed, same. People who report into that person don't like their management.

What happens then?

Why are you drip feeding?!

Be professional at work.

If your in law wants to tell you stuff they will. Nothing you can do to help their situation at work, at work you’re their colleague.

because I don't want people to know!

Also why are people being so weird.

If the employee is unhappy with work conditions, complains, and gets no tractions with those complaints, the employee likely just needs to look for a new job. If the complaints rise to a legal issue they could simultaneously pursue intervention from the correct organization, but the end result is still going to be unemployment.

Not liking your manager is not enough of a reason to complain. You’d have to gather watertight evidence that your manager is negligent in her work (or incompetent or commuting misconduct) and take that to HR. Otherwise put up or shut up, I’m afraid.

Then you leave like my original message said. If you can't read basic messages of a sentence then maybe your manager has a point about you.

Yeah Im trying to stay away from the situation but it's hard.

She has and it's not been upheld

Yes and she keeps on coming to me

What if they don't?

That’s my point! This person has to give up or leave this job, sorry.

I try not to get involved on a personal of professional level but I'm also not going to ignore her if she comes to me and husband.

I spoke to chat gpt and they said it's most likely to try and build relationship with managers manager and to make sure the company isn't acting unlawfully.

She won't leave as been there a while and age etc. Not sure any sidewards moves either

The council where I live have them and they're free to consult. When I was coming back from mat leave I went and met one to try and get a bit of a direction for myself again and it was helpful.

Is it possible the second meeting is around mediation to try to make a plan for moving forwards?

You say she's family but do you actually work together? If not then I think you need to be careful op as I know I've worked with colleagues who have been struggling with the work and have blamed it on their manager or the workload when in reality their performance was the issue and I know because I was holding the work they weren't doing or were doing wrong on top of my own heavier work load. So it may be there is a performance issue underneath this that she's not taking accountability for and maybe now the grievance has been dealt with they're going to look to address that and create a development plan? It sounds like you're only hearing one side of this so I'd be referring her back to her process.

If she chooses to stay on that's up to her but if she's miserable then leaving would make sense.

A new company!

Is there any possibility of independent mediation being offered?
