Each company will have its own claim procedure. You can find it in the office manual or in the terms of business or your contract. If you cannot locate the procedure, you must ask your Human Resources Department or your supervisor or the Office Administrator, as you should be able to guide you.

Step one: Let your employer know

It will not be possible to resolve a situation if you do not tell your employer about it. You will have to realize them. It is advisable to do this informally at first, as it gives you and your employer the opportunity to solve the problem quickly.

Step two: raise a formal complaint

Your written claim must be established, what has happened, how / why it has bothered you and what you think should be done to solve the problem.

Step Three: Research

Your employer has the opportunity to investigate your complaint. A formal investigation can involve meetings with personnel and witnesses and/or the accumulation of documentary evidence. Your employer must fully investigate your claim to make an informed decision about the matter.

Step four: Claim Meeting

Then, a meeting with you must be held (it is allowed, by law, to be accompanied if you wish) and your employer, to discuss your claim and the evidence and/or the statements that your employer has met. This meeting must be held promptly, without an unreasonable delay.

You must use this meeting as the opportunity to explain the complaint with as many details as possible and how you think the situation can be resolved.

Step Five: Your Employers' Decision

Once the meeting has come to the conclusion, your employer will take the time to decide which action may or should be taken, where appropriate. Keep in mind that it is totally feasible for your employer to keep your claim, but indicate that there is nothing that can be done to resolve the situation. This decision will be confirmed in writing, this letter must also contain details about the appeal of the decision, including the time limits that must act within.
