Welcome to our blog where we share articles for the profession on best practice in complaint handling.
Managing the personal impact of complaints
Being complained about can be difficult, stressful or distressing. It can feel very personal to receive a complaint when you feel you have tried your best to help someone. Sometimes a complainer’s distress will lead them to act in inappropriate ways when making their complaint, which can be difficult to deal with. In a small number of cases, complainers’ actions can be threatening, leading firms to believe there are risks to the safety of staff.
