Advanced employee investigation interview skills and tactics
In recognition of the rising expectations judges have of an employer's investigation process and documentation, and the ever increasing complexity of some employee investigations, more and more organisations are recognising that the conduct of investigations is a specialist role, and developing in-house teams of dedicated management investigators.Austrian employment law training - practical guidance and local insights
Although there are similarities, it is dangerous to consider the German and Austrian employment law systems to be one and the same. Austrian law is distinct in many ways, most importantly in relation to probationary periods, the termination of employment contracts and severance. There are also sufficient differences in contract law to make the use of one model employment contract, for German and Austrian employees, a potentially expensive error for employers.Avoiding victimisation - infamy, infamy...
Every experienced HR professional will have to deal with a disgruntled employee who cannot move on from an incident, or disappointment, at work. A fair grievance process may have been followed and a thorough investigation held, but some employees simply cannot get over an outcome. This workshop provides a safe space to talk about the warning signs and the steps you can take.Belgian employment law training - practical guidance and local insights
An employer found guilty of discrimination by a Belgian court can face a sentence of up to one year in prison. There is no concept of redundancy in Belgium and no concept of unfair dismissal either.Bereavement, grief and work - change and adjustment
“Take as long as you need...”. There is lots of evidence of good practice in the handling of bereavement in the workplace. Work can be therapeutic or a final straw. Every case is different. Length of service, seniority, past record, and the empathy level and influence of a line manager often affect an organisation’s response. So, too, do the circumstances of the death, raising questions about consistency of treatment.Business immigration update - UK visa sponsorship and licence management
This Business immigration update - UK visa sponsorship and licence management training course is relevant to HR and recruitment professionals from Tier 2 and 5 sponsors (including potential sponsors) who use the sponsor management system or have responsibility for a sponsor licence. Knowledge of the points-based system is assumed.Colombia's Solar Future Conference
Spread over two days with an optional pre-conference workshop, El Futuro Solar Colombia will bring together over 120 local market leaders and public stakeholders to discuss the challenges and opportunities in the immediate future for Colombia’s solar energy market.Complex employment disputes - cases from hell
Sometimes, from apparently simple facts, an employment dispute can cause damage far beyond the costs and issues that had initially appeared to be at stake, while consuming vast amounts of time and resources.Driving for work - investigation and law
Individuals who drive for your organisation are invariably your greatest health and safety risk; whether the vehicle is work supplied or personally owned. Employers must be able to demonstrate that they take their responsibility seriously and that all of their drivers are properly trained, fit, licensed and insured and that all vehicles are fit for purpose.Dutch employment law training - practical guidance and local insights
It is commonly believed that it is difficult and expensive to terminate an employment contract in the Netherlands. Employee rights are well protected under Dutch law, especially in dismissal cases, but employers are able to swiftly adjust staff levels in their company to changes, for example a fluctuation in workload. A wide variety of options are available for employers to hire people in a flexible manner provided that the rules are used properly.Employee data update
Data protection law had to be updated to reflect the volume of information that is routinely collected, the portability of data and the increased risk of damage from misuse. The GDPR permits EU member states to introduce their own laws in some areas, most notably in employment law, and the UK’s Data Protection Act 2018 fills this gap. The Data Protection Act changes the way HR collects and uses staff information and what they must tell staff about the information they store about them.Employee investigations
Employment tribunals expect employers to show that they have undertaken a fair and thorough investigation of complaints. This investigation can be time-consuming and complicated. However, if carried out early and correctly, an investigation should contain a problem and minimise distraction from the business.Employee relations - working effectively with your union and employee representatives
A decline in industrial action and a trend within HR functions toward specialism, means that many senior managers lack experience of working with unions and employee representatives.Employment law breakfast briefing: Mental health and work
At any time, 1 in 5 of the working population will have a mental health disorder, most commonly anxiety or depression, and a further 1 in 6 will have symptoms of mental ill health, including substance dependence.Essential employment law for HR professionals
HR professionals and managers need to understand the legal framework that underpins the employment relationship.Essential immigration law for employers
Increasing compliance activity, the Government’s commitment to a net migration target and Brexit make it crucial that employers have a clear understanding of right to work issues. This course covers the UK immigration system, in the context of the employment life cycle, the areas of law that apply and competing risks and penalties.European HR: cross-border employment law
Managing teams of people is challenging at the best of times. Working across European borders is even more difficult due to cultural and legal differences.Fairer pay? Gaps, ethnicity and ratios
So what are you going to do now? Your valued staff, customers, future talent and the press can see your gender pay gap data, alongside any explanation provided and action plans you have committed to. In less than 12 months’ time you must publish new data and progress will be expected. Pay gaps arise from the structure and composition of a workforce, often linked to custom and practice over decades.Family-related rights and leave
EHRC research suggests that 75% of working mothers may have experienced discrimination at work, many of whom will have quietly left their organisation. IFS research shows the gender pay gap widens with age after the first child. The take up of shared parental leave has been low to date and, until fathers take a fuller share of leave and child care, it is unlikely that gender pay differentials will narrow.French employment law training - practical guidance and local insights
Based on the Napoleonic code and amended by statute ever since, French employment law is markedly different from the UK’s.GC Forum: Digital Wellbeing - best practice for you and your teams
Join us for our next GC Forum when we will hear from award-winning digital entrepreneur, tech ethicist and author, Tanya Goodin. Tanya will be sharing the latest research on screen overuse and what excess time on our digital devices may be doing to our brains, productivity and focus and asking, if we all have to spend the majority of our time on screens at work, how can we can cut down on screen-time in a way that's both healthy and realistic?Gender identity and intersex
Aren’t we all a little non-binary, perhaps a bit ‘tom boy’ or with a ‘feminine side’? QUILTBAG is an acronym coined to be more inclusive towards minorities. It goes beyond LGBT but it still does not capture all the expanding identities. Arguably, the more inclusive your organisation becomes, the more likely it is that you will encounter a widening range of gender expression because your people will feel more able to be themselves.German employment law training - practical guidance and local insights
Germany is a major trading partner for many countries throughout the world, not to mention the most important single market in the European Union.Health, safety and environment update - Corporate silence?
A long chain of companies and decision makers were responsible for the refurbishment of Grenfell Tower, raising questions about oversight, supervision and responsibility. This may explain why some companies have declined to comment to the Inquiry. Legal privilege is a poorly understood tool which can help ensure that lessons are learned from accidents. It gives space for rational analysis but, when emotion supersedes reason, employers may become the target of media and public criticism.HR and OH: Working together?
The partnership between the occupational health and human resources functions does not always work as well as it might. Unrealistic expectations, misunderstandings and ad hoc, delayed and contradictory communication, on both sides, mean that the effectiveness of OH referrals and interventions may be reduced. Patient confidentiality, medical jargon and line managers facing commercial pressures an also widen any gap between HR and their medical advisors.
