Grievance - Access to data

Employees can request access to their information being held by their employer including grievance related information. Unless there is a legal obligation to do so, the Council will only disclose information about an employee where it concludes that in all the circumstances, it is fair to do so.

In the case of confidential information provided by witnesses to any investigating officer, the Council will only disclose confidential information if the individual has clearly agreed or despite the duty of confidence, the worker’s interest or the wider public interest justifies disclosure.
