What this service covers
The service covers review of the meeting invite, allegation, grievance, agenda or evidence, a preparation call, meeting strategy and attendance where the employer permits external support.
Why preparation matters
A meeting can lock in the employer's reasons, create evidence, expose gaps in the investigation or show whether the employer followed a fair process.
Companion rights and permission
The statutory right to be accompanied is usually by a trade union representative or fellow worker. External support may still be agreed by the employer, especially where the matter is sensitive or remote.
What to send first
Send the invite letter, allegations, evidence pack, grievance, investigation notes, policies, emails and any deadline for written submissions.
