What is a grievance, and how does the system that police leaders use for dealing with one when it arises function?

A grievance is a formal complaint by an employee or the union against the employer. All police departments should have a formalized grievance procedure to adjudicate grievances, allowing for problems to be aired and rectified with minimum negative impact on the department and its morale. Such procedures establish a fair and expeditious process for handling employee disputes that are not disciplinary in nature; they may involve a broad range of issues. The simplest and preferred method for settling officers’ grievances is through informal discussion. The employee explains his or her grievance to the immediate supervisor, allowing him or her to vent any frustrations as well as explain the problem. Most complaints can be handled in this manner, thus reducing the number of grievances. Those complaints that cannot be dealt with informally are usually handled through a more formal grievance process, as described next.
The process for formally handling grievances will vary among agencies and may involve several levels of action.
