My daughter has worked for her employer for 5 years 6 months. Recently the employer announced a job "reshuffle". She, and others, have been mapped to a job and may also apply for one other job of the same grade. She scored 56% for a job in finance (A) and 55% for a Project Planner assistant job (B). She does not want to work in finance, having changed career 20 years ago after being in banking for 12 years.
Job B is mostly her existing job with other bits added in. There are four applicants.
She did not believe the mapping and did her own, which scores 33.3% job A and 65% job B. Her employer has refused her request for independent re-mapping. They say they will keep her score for job B at 55% but revise her score for job A down to 33.3%.
If she is not the preferred applicant for job B, she will essentially be out of work because the employer will not employ anyone whose mapping score is less than 50%.
Her union agree that she has multiple concerns to raise via the grievance procedure but want to delay any grievances until after the expected interviews this coming Thursday.
1 - is it unreasonable to complain now (ie before interview) about the failure to agree to independent re-mapping?
2 - any suggestion about a way forward would be appreciated.
I am asking on her behalf because the stress and the fact that she may lose her job are making her ill.
Thank you
