Employment Law
Employment Issues?
Employees are the most valuable asset of any organisation, whether large or small.
Changes in legislation for disciplinary and grievance procedures and age discrimination means that it is essential for employers to review their practices and procedures.
Issues can escalate very quickly and it is important to undertake the correct procedures from the very beginning of a dispute, to reduce the risk of a costly employment tribunal.
There are other areas such as equal opportunities, sickness and stress management where careful consideration to suitable policies can be a great help in managing staff and protecting against the risk of a claim. Given that the maximum compensation for an unfair dismissal claim is over £60,000 and there is no limit on compensation for discrimination claims, employers would be sensible to protect themselves against employment law claims.
