People Processes

According to the Ministry of Justice statistics for 2017/2018, the average unfair dismissal claim for the year ending 31 March 2018 was £15,007 (excluding costs). Unfair dismissal arises when the employer's reason for terminating employment is not fair or the proper procedure has not been followed when the employee was dismissed

A failure to follow the correct procedure is the most common reason that employers fall foul of employment tribunal claims. If you are setting up or growing your business, having the right people processes in place can help you avoid this common pitfall

We can help you to set up or review all your HR processes, such as ...

• absence management
• appraisal and / or career planning
• disciplinary and / or grievance procedures
• family friendly processes
• performance management
• recruitment and selection
• redundancy and / or organisational restructures
• succession / talent pipeline planning
• training and development

As an add-on, we also provide training for directors, managers and / or employees on putting these policies and procedures into practice. These sessions can be delivered in individual or group sessions, using your own policies and practices as guidelines. We clarify what the different components of a policy mean, how they help you comply with your legal obligations and how you can put them into practice

If you want a review of your current policies, policy implementation training or to add additional policies to your business, please get in touch
