| Time period and availability |
| Latest data covers the period from 1 April 2012 to 31 March 2013. |
| What does this tell us? |
| The data presented here show the percentage of employees who have raised a grievance against their status in relation to each of the following protected characteristics: age; disability; ethnicity; and gender. |
| As the total number of grievances are quite small, the percentages can vary considerably without implying significant differences. However, the percentage of employees by gender who raise a grievance is close to the corresponding headcount indicating similar behaviour. |
| Comparison with the 2012 report shows that the overall percentage of people raising a grievance has declined and this has been reflected across all age groups. |
| How will an improvement be shown? |
| Generally the similarity of this indicator in a protected and non-protected group will indicate equivalent behaviour. However, this will require a reasonably complete declaration rate and sufficiently large volumes to be precise. In addition, it should also be borne in mind that raising a grievance is an individual’s decision impacted by a range of personal factors. |
