When a disciplinary issue arises we understand that initial reactions can include anger and trigger a knee-jerk reaction.  With Employment Tribunal claims on the increase, it is more important than ever that all of the managers within your business are aware of their duties and responsibilities when dealing with disciplinary matters.

Even in the most heinous of gross misconduct circumstances employers are best advised to follow the ACAS Code as a minimum to avoid the risk of an Employment Tribunal claim.  As a minimum, employees are entitled to a fair investigation, hearing, the right to be accompanied and the right to appeal any decision.

We can provide you with an all-round solution by conducting training for your managers, drafting clear and easily accessible policies which are appropriate to your business, and guiding you through a disciplinary process when it does arise.  Taking any of these steps in isolation, we can provide you with the necessary paperwork, guidance for meetings, and commercial advice throughout.
