Employment law is changing all the time and there are many reasons why it pays to keep up to date with new regulations and legislation:
- Penalties for non-compliance can be costly
- The number of Employment Tribunal claims has doubled in recent years – and looks set to continue
- Awards for unfair dismissal have increased to beyond £55,000
- Awards in relation to discrimination are unlimited
- Good policies and procedures will help you to attract and maintain motivated staff
Did you know…..the chances of being involved in an employment dispute are already higher than the threat of your business incurring a serious fire or theft? Whilst virtually all companies readily insure their assets against these traditional perils, why leave your balance sheet exposed from this current and increasing threat?
Any company, no matter how large or small, is at risk from potential claims for:
- Statutory Dismissal Discipline & Grievance Procedures
- Unfair Dismissal
- Flexible Working
- Parental leave
- Harassment at work
- Discrimination on the grounds of sex, race, religion, sexual orientation & disability
- Age Discrimination (2006)
Not only is it important that you understand your legal obligations, you should also consider protecting yourself for the devastating effect a claim could have on the financial viability of your business.
