Purpose and Scope

At the ANU Entrepreneurship Club, we are committed to fostering an inclusive, respectful, and professional environment. Our grievance policy ensures that all members and stakeholders have access to a clear, transparent, and fair process for raising and resolving professional concerns.

This policy applies strictly to professional grievances that arise within the operations of the club. It is intended to:

• Uphold our values of respect, inclusivity, and democratic decision-making.
• Provide a clear process for resolving professional grievances.
• Ensure timely resolution of concerns raised by members.

Guiding Principles

• Respect and Inclusion: We respect all individuals and their decisions. Every voice matters, and all concerns will be treated with respect and confidentiality.
• Democratic Process: We follow a democratic and collaborative approach in our decision-making.
• Transparency and Fairness: All grievances will be handled with impartiality, ensuring a fair and equitable process.

Grievance Resolution Process

Step 1: Raise Informal Concerns with Your Manager

If you have a professional grievance, you are encouraged to first raise the matter informally with your designated manager. Manager assignments can be found on your Outlook profile.

Step 2: Approach the President's Office

If you are unsatisfied with the resolution at the managerial level, you may escalate the matter to the President and their office informally.

• Please allow up to 3 working days for the President’s Office to address your concern.

Step 3: Submit a Formal Appeal to the Executive Committee

If you believe your case has still not received a fair judgment, you may submit a formal appeal to the Executive Committee.

• Formal appeals should be submitted via email to [email protected].
• The Executive Committee will provide a resolution within 10 working days of receiving the formal appeal.
