News headlines tell us that litigation by disgruntled employees can be enormously expensive and damaging. The best way to avoid such actions is to ensure that your contracts of employment, policies and procedures are not only legally compliant but are properly understood - by your managers as well as your employees.
In an age of increasing statutory rights and tribunals, the key to avoiding disputes is to be proactive and thorough with all your employment documentation. This is a step-by-step briefing, taking you through the very basics that an organisation needs to issue to its employees in the form of contracts, key policies and procedures.
This interactive and highly pragmatic briefing is presented by an experienced Human Resources practitioner and Trainer with plenty of practical hands on experience in, and employment legislation knowledge of, the implementation of employment contracts and associated documentation within SMEs.
