Complaint made against me

Hello,

Basically another member of staff or a group of them have raised a complaint/s with my line manager. I'm a nurse auxiliary/health care assistant in my role. I've been asked to meet with them to discuss it but not been told the nature of the complaint and whether this meeting is formal or informal. Does anyone have any advice for how I can prepare for this meeting? I'm rather upset that who ever had a problem with me didn't feel able to come talk to me personally as i'd never thought of myself as unapproachable or anything.

Thank you

If your manager has asked you to meet it'll be informal, for any meeting under a formal policy she would need to write to you and offer the opportunity of union representation. This will be fact finding and letting you know what the concerns are.

If you feel more comfortable ask if a work colleague you trust can sit in. I would advice you join a union as soon as possible, that way they can support you should you need them.
