An utterly digusting HMT process with a terrible outcome. As ever, given the utter fallacy of an employer or it's representatives being on your side, join a union. And having joined, consult your union representative. They are on your side.

Correct…an ambush ‘HR’ meeting is far too common with little/no redress… Asymmetric knowledge around HR is abused too…little support and no appeal (inferred or explicit)… Young, less experienced staff and staff on ‘probation’ particularly vulnerable.

Me too, they have not been held to account. She went into the meeting as though a regular 1:1 but a senior manager was present. It was supposedly informal but they removed her email access and responsibilities which is disciplinary. Clearly, Treasury HR has learnt nothing from this.
