The number of claims to employment tribunals continues to rise steeply, with more and more people bringing multiple claims?
An employer can now be sued in an ordinary court on account of bullying at work, and there is no defence to such a claim?
Ignorance of employment law is no defence in a tribunal claim?
There has never been a time when employment law has been expanding, evolving and changing so rapidly. If your line managers do not have an awareness and understanding of employment law, you can be sure that their employees will, and that they will use it.
Employment Law Training can be:
A highly practical introductory course for line managers and HR practitioners with the objective of providing a stimulating insight into the essentials of employment law, and a keen awareness of managerial responsibilities and liabilities;
A tailored training course focusing on a specific topic, for example disciplinary and grievance procedures, recruitment, selection and interviewing, working hours and holiday entitlements, equality and diversity, harassment and bullying, maternity and other family rights, managing and handling absence, or controlling employees' use of e-mail and the internet;
An up-date course covering recent and forthcoming developments, including the statutory dismissal, disciplinary and grievance procedures, new equality/anti-discrimination legislation, including age discrimination, rights for part-time and fixed-term employees, enhanced maternity, paternity and adoption leave rights,
and the multifarious implications of recent case decisions from the UK and Europe.
All workshops can be tailored to suit your needs in terms of content, length, level and in order to fit in with your in-house procedures.
