Thursday 16 July 2026
10:00 to 11:00

  • The Rise of the “Instant Grievance” How employees are using ChatGPT to transform vague frustrations into highly structured, professional-sounding formal complaints—and why this is causing “grievance inflation” in HR departments. 
  • Spotting the “AI Ghostwriter” Key indicators that an appeal or grievance wasn’t written by the employee, from “hallucinated” legal precedents to a sudden, uncharacteristic shift in tone and vocabulary. 
  • The “reasonable investigation” trap Under the ACAS Code, you must investigate grievances fairly. We’ll discuss how to handle AI-generated submissions that are 50+ pages long or filled with irrelevant legal “noise” without breaching your duty of care. 
  • Confidentiality & the “data leak” risk The hidden danger: employees inputting sensitive company data, salary info, or colleague names into public AI bots to help draft their claims. Learn how to address this as a disciplinary matter. 
  • The human-centric response Strategies for bringing the process back to reality. We’ll show you how to use the “Grievance Hearing” to get to the heart of the employee’s actual concerns. 
  • Updating your policies for 2026 Why your acceptable use and grievance policies need specific clauses regarding AI-assisted submissions and the right to use AI-detection tools.
