  • Cleaner case files

    Every record follows the same layout, so HR starts from an orderly file instead of scattered notes.

  • Sensitive matters reach a person

    Health, protected and legal matters skip the draft and go straight to a named person.

  • Context in one place

    Policy sections and earlier related cases sit with the report, ready for whoever reviews it.

  • Judgement stays with HR

    The record holds the facts as reported and nothing more, so conclusions are left to people.

What HR Employee Relations does for you

  • Drafts a case record

    Dates, the people involved by role or id, the facts as reported and the status, laid out the same way every time and marked as a draft.

  • Builds a neutral chronology

    Events in date order and plain, neutral wording, recording what was reported rather than what anyone concludes.

  • Points to the policy that applies

    Lists the sections of your own policy that relate to the report, by section number.

  • Links earlier related cases

    Shows earlier case records about the same matter or person, so a reviewer sees the history.

  • Hands sensitive matters to a person

    Health, protected characteristics, harassment, legal threats and employment decisions go to a named person instead of into a draft.

  • Lists the drafts waiting

    A list of draft records waiting for review, in incident date order.

How HR Employee Relations differs from Lawyer

Lawyer prepares drafts for counsel when a matter needs legal advice. HR Employee Relations works earlier and closer to home: it files a staff report as a draft case record with a neutral chronology, your policy sections and earlier cases, and every record waits for a person in HR. It reaches no findings, gives no legal advice and decides nothing about anyone, from discipline and pay to promotion and termination; sensitive matters go straight to a named person.

How this differs from the Lawyer: When a matter needs legal advice, use Lawyer; HR Employee Relations drafts the case record for HR and reaches no findings.

Example: draft case record for HR review

Example with a fictional company. Names, people and figures are invented to show the agent's output. Any resemblance to a real company or person is unintended.

What it was asked: A front desk agent at Hotel B says approved shift swaps keep disappearing from the rota; turn the report into a draft case record we can review, with the dates, the policy sections that apply and any earlier related cases.

Example report
A case header card with case id, status draft waiting for HR review, dates, location and staff ids, four tiles for 5 events, 4 policy sections, 2 earlier cases and 0 findings, and a timeline of five dated events each written as reported.
The case header and a neutral chronology
A table of four staff handbook sections with why each is listed, a table of two earlier case ids at the same hotel with their status, a box listing what the record does not do and a note for the HR reviewer.
Handbook sections that apply, and earlier related cases
A red-bordered handoff card reading sent to a person: health and protected matters, with the fixed handoff wording and what was and was not kept, beside a table of three handoff lanes and three tiles.
A second intake touched a health matter, so a person took it
A list of six draft case records sorted by incident date then case id, with property, topic and status, the current case highlighted, beside tiles for open drafts and properties and notes on how the list is built.
All draft records, ordered by incident date

What it found: 3 findings, with the numbers

  • The shift swap report became draft record DH-ER-0147: 5 events as reported between 12 and 29 Oct, 4 handbook sections and 2 earlier cases, with no findings made.
  • A second intake that touched a health matter went straight to the HR manager with fixed handoff wording; no record was drafted and nothing else was kept.
  • Six drafts are open across the three hotels, listed by incident date, and every one waits for HR review before anything happens.

This is an illustrative example of the draft case records HR Employee Relations is being built to produce: a case header, a neutral chronology, the handbook sections and earlier case ids, a handoff for a sensitive intake and a list of open drafts. It was written by hand from the agent's design for an invented hotel group with invented staff ids, cases and handbook sections; no real systems or people were involved, and nothing was sent, posted, paid or changed.

Frequently asked questions about HR Employee Relations

What belongs in a workplace concern case record?

The dates, who was involved by role, the facts as each person reported them, the policy sections that apply and any earlier related cases, in neutral wording with no conclusions. HR Employee Relations drafts that record for HR to review, and sensitive matters go straight to a person.

How do you write a neutral chronology of a workplace concern?

Put events in date order, say who reported each one, and record what was said rather than what anyone concludes, without loaded words. HR Employee Relations lays out the chronology that way in every draft record, and the people in HR decide what it means.

Which workplace concerns should go straight to a person?

Anything about health, protected characteristics, harassment, discrimination or a legal threat, and any decision about someone's job. HR Employee Relations drafts no case file for these and hands them to a named person in HR. It gives no legal advice; for that, Lawyer prepares drafts for counsel.

What does employee relations case management involve?

Keeping an orderly record of workplace concerns from report to resolution. HR Employee Relations covers the first part: a draft case record with dates, the facts as reported, policy references and earlier cases, ready for HR to review.

Does it decide whether a complaint is upheld?

No. It records what was reported and stops there. Findings, outcomes and any action are decided by people in HR.

What happens with harassment or health matters?

They are not drafted into a case file. They go straight to a named person, along with legal threats and any employment decision.

Can it tell us what employment law requires in a case?

No. It gives no legal advice. Lawyer prepares drafts for counsel, and the labour law pages explain general rules.
