Employment law is a dynamic practice that is regularly changing. As your business grows, so does the need to manage risk of workplace legal issues. You need to ensure that your policies for managing your employees are extensive, unambiguous, and up-to-date with current legislation.

If you have strong policies in place and seek legal advice as soon as possible when issues do arise, you minimise your chances of issues escalating to the point where they become damaging to your business.

Applying the right procedures and policies for your business

Every business is different, but employment law remains the same across the board. That’s why it’s imperative to put the right policies in place that work for your organisation and still remain compliant with current legislation. Workplace issues that can eventually damage a business can include but are not limited to:

• Disciplinary action
• Allegations of discrimination
• Allegations of harassment or bullying
• Ill health procedures and sick pay policies
• Performance management
• Disability discrimination laws
• GDPR compliance and training
• Maternity/paternity law 
• Flexible working policies
