When Do You Go to Human Resources as a Health Unit Coordinator (Video)

                                          

Conflict is bound to happen when multiple people from different backgrounds come together in a stressful environment. But when issues become problems, you may have to escalate the situation.

So, when do you go to Human Resources? When you have used your chain of command and have spoken with your immediate supervisor, manager, or director and the problems have not been addressed or ceased.

Put it in writing. You cannot go down to HR all mad and emotional. You must type up everything going on from start to finish. You need to include names and dates of the incidents when you spoke to your immediate supervisor, the outcome of that discussion, and the names and dates of any further incidents.

Directors do not like being asked to explain why there is conflict among employees that they are not handling. And HR departments do not like receiving letters from unhappy employees that include the words “harassment,” “bullying,” or “retaliation.”
