HR Support & Employment Law Advice

Any business, however large or small that employs people, will need to ensure that it has sound HR practices in place. Managing people can be really tough. Whether recruiting staff, issuing contracts of employment, issuing an employee handbook, dealing with poor performance, capability issues and grievance & disciplinary, ensuring that best practice is adopted and working within employment legislation is key. Dealing with these tasks and issues can be very time consuming, and if not done properly, extremely expensive if the business ends up in an Employment Tribunal. Employment Law can be a minefield, and sound professional advice will help you to avoid the pitfalls – allowing you to focus on running your business.
