304. Notice of termination of employment:
Dear Bart,
Re: Termination of Employment – Absence from work without notification
I am writing to you further to my emails of 2nd and 3rd May 2018 and our email correspondence of the 4th May 2018. For ease, I am going to detail a timeline of events:
- You provided various doctors notes for sickness absence for stress related anxiety from 12th March 2018 to 10th April 2018.
- On 6th April 2018 you raised a grievance against your line manager Susana Martin as an accusation of bullying.
- Danielle Wood (Human Resources) replied to you on 9th April 2018 and invited you to attend a meeting to look at your return to work and discuss your email in more detail.
- This meeting took place on 9th April 2018 at 4pm, led by Danielle Wood with me taking minutes (which have been shared with you and you have provided input to).
- Following this meeting, it was decided a formal grievance process needed to take place. Ordinarily, when a grievance is against the immediate line manager, the hearing would be held by their manager. However, in this instance as Samira Mouhayar, Head of Customer Service WE was implicated as part of your complaint, we had to escalate to her line manager Roni Maman, VP Business Operations.
- All information regarding your grievance was sent to Roni Maman (including the various emails you sent to myself and Danielle Wood on 11th April 2018) in order for him to assess and carry out investigation as needed. This included holding an investigation meeting with Susana Martin.
- It was agreed with Danielle Wood that you would be suspended while the investigation took place and this was initially from 16th to 20th April 2018 but was extended to 25th April 2018 to enable all the relevant meetings and reviews to take place.
- On 17th April 2018 you requested Annual Leave between 8th and 15th May 2018, this was subsequently partly approved for the dates 10th to 15th May 2018 due to availability of other
