Assistant Chief of the Air Staff, a senior appointment in the Royal Air Force
Urgh, how awful...sadly I've always been left wanting by unions both here and in Ireland. Unite were not good at all, more after your subscription. Have ACAS helped at all, I found them better re verbal advice.
Yeah ACAS have been half decent I keep chasing Unite cos I need a rep in my redundancy meetings and they are just fully blanking me now 😭

ACAS means: Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service.. There is no real cause for parental concern; it is descriptive vocabulary rather than risky behaviour. If your teen uses it, context will usually make the intent clear. A short, curious question about where they heard it is usually all that is needed to know whether to follow up.
ACAS means: Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service.. Register: neutral, standard English. A common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; native speakers immediately notice when slang appears in formal contexts, so always check the surrounding register before producing it yourself. A formal-English equivalent (a synonym or descriptive phrase) is usually safer in writing. When in doubt, paraphrase rather than reuse the slang form.
