I am writing to request information to which I am entitled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
For EACH of the previous three fiscal years (i.e. 2019/20, 2020/21, 2021/22) and 2022/23 – up to December 31 – please can you tell me:
The TOTAL number of complaints brought by fire and rescue service employees, against other fire and rescue employees, under the relevant Complaints Procedure; ideally, I wish the data to be broken down by type of grievance/s (e.g. bullying and discrimination, sexual harassment and assault, etc.).
The TOTAL number of complaints that were upheld.
The TOTAL number of upheld complaints that resulted in disciplinary action.
If this request is too wide or unclear, I would be grateful if you could contact me as I understand that under the Act, you are required to advise and assist requesters. If any of this information is already in the public domain, please can you direct me to it, with page references and URLs if necessary.
Thank you for your Freedom of Information request.
