Document background
The Grievance Investigation Outcome Letter is a crucial document in Australian workplace relations that formally concludes a grievance investigation process. It is used when an organization has completed investigating a formal complaint or grievance raised by an employee, contractor, or other workplace participant. The letter must comply with Australian employment law, including the Fair Work Act 2009, various anti-discrimination laws, and privacy legislation. It typically includes details of the investigation process, findings, any actions to be taken, and information about appeal rights. The document serves multiple purposes: it provides closure to the complainant, creates an official record of the investigation outcome, and helps protect the organization by demonstrating procedural fairness and compliance with legal obligations.
