Grievance

If attempts at resolving the situation informally fail, VCU employees may choose to participate in a formal grievance process. All individuals will be subject to VCU policies and procedures.

Since the scope of the ombudsperson’s office is limited to informal dispute resolution, VCU’s ombudsperson does not participate in grievance processes. The ombudsperson does not keep records for VCU, and this office is not available for testimony or other activity related to any formal process, including grievances, arbitration, hearings or litigation.

The grievance policies for faculty and staff differ: 

• Faculty grievance

• Classified staff grievance
