Grievance Intake and Response

Intake and response refers to the recording of a grievance and providing the client an initial response, which usually involves an explanation about how the grievance will be processed by the DSWD and other actors.

 

As a general rule, anyone may accept a grievance but only the City/Municipal Link and grievance officers may ascertain its validity and thereafter intake the grievance. To ‘accept’ a grievance is to receive the transaction but to ‘intake’ is to record the transaction in a grievance form after ascertaining its validity. Intake and response require technical know-how about the GRS, particularly on the procedures in resolving the specific types and subtypes of grievances.
