How is processing a complaint via the Bonsucro Grievance Mechanism funded?

8th June 2020

The Bonsucro’s contract with CEDR is based on fixed fees for each step in the Grievance Mechanism. For the second financial year (April 2021 –March 2022), Bonsucro has allocated a budget to finance the setup costs and subsidise CEDR’s case handling fees. A rate card can be provided by CEDR during the initial scoping phase.

With that budget, approximately three complaints can be processed via the Bonsucro Grievance Mechanism.

CEDR will consider available funding when deciding on scoping. For more information on funding, please visit Section 7.1 of the Grievance Mechanism Rules. Bonsucro will also keep working with other organisations to identify alternative sources of funding. See our  Bonsucro Promoting workers and community voices project for more information.
