An employer’s policies and procedures are essential management tools which, when drafted clearly, enable all managers to deal with the most frequently arising issues in day to day people management. If applied consistently and fairly, employees at all levels of the organisation will understand the culture of the organisation in which they work and what that organisation expects of them. Legislation and case law requires them to be kept under frequent review.
We regularly advise clients in the public and private sector in the drafting and implementation of policies and procedures and devise customised training programmes to ensure that they are clearly applied across the board, thereby minimising the risk of employment claims.
