Employment Law
The UK employment law is constantly changing with new legislation being introduced and updated on a regular basis.
Needless to say the consequences of failing to follow employment law can be very costly for a business, both in tribunal claims and damage to the business. It only needs one tribunal against a small business to cause long term damage.
We appreciate employment law can be seen like a *****, but with direction and advice from PNHR to physically guide you through it, it wont seem so daunting.
Advice can be given on the following areas, amongst others:-
- Minimum Wage
- Redundancies/Dismissals
- Retirement
- Discrimination in all its forms
- Working Time Regulations
- Disciplinary and Grievance Procedures
- Maternity and Parental Rights
- Harassment
...... and so on!
"90% of Employment Tribunals occur because employers make procedural errors"
Tribunals
If a business is in the unfortunate position of having a tribunal claim against them, PNHR will assist in response and the preparation for the tribunal.
Contracts - Terms and Conditions of Employment
Did you know? - The moment an applicant unconditionally accepts your offer of a job a contract of employment comes into existence. The terms and conditions can be oral, written or implied, or all three.
You are under a legal duty to provide the employee with a written statement of main employment particulars within 2 months of a start date.
PNHR can assist in the preparation of tailored Terms and Conditions of Employment suitable to your business and which comply with legislation.
