EASTLEYS recognise that
for many businesses, negotiating a route through
Employment Legislation is something of a minefield.
This is why we, at EASTLEYS, are here to help you
avoid the pitfalls you may encounter. We aim to
relieve you of your employment problems, leaving
you free to concentrate on your business.
Many of you are aware that the Government are in
the process of introducing a new Legislation, designed
primarily to effect European Law requirements relating
to family friendly practices. But you do not know
how these are going to affect you and your employees.
From 1 October 2004, new statutory disciplinary
and grievance procedures came into force. A
failure to follow these will result in an automatically
unfair dismissal. Furthermore, any failure to respond
to an employee’s complaint to an Employment
Tribunal, within the statutory time limit will lead
to judgment being entered against you or your Company.
It has now become essential to ensure all staff
are supplied with a correct and up to date Statement
of Terms and Conditions of Employment. If you, as
an employer, fail to do this, you will face penal
damages should you end up at an Employment Tribunal.
