Policies and procedures
Clear and well-managed processes within the workplace can make the difference between a fair and an unfair dismissal, and can significantly reduce the risk of claims arising from discriminatory conduct between colleagues and within management. Clearly defined policies will provide confidence for managers involved in handling workplace disputes such as disciplinary and grievance matters and at the same time will make it clear to employees what conduct will and will not be acceptable.
A wide range of employment policies are available which include:
- Disciplinary and grievance
- Equal opportunities
- Whistleblowing
- Internet and email use
- Flexible working
- Health and safety
- Anti-harassment and bullying
- Data protection
- Sickness absence
- Home-working
- Social media
Each client will have different needs and therefore we can advise you on the types of policy suitable for your business.
