Reduce risk in your organisation

If people risk is introduced into your business and left unmanaged, it can have a significant effect on costs and the reputation of your organisation. Risk can arise through:

  • A lack of assurance around the application of policy and process.
  • Complexity in your employee relations policies and processes.
  • Local practices exist in different parts of your organisation.

We can help you to significantly reduce the likelihood of Employment Tribunal claims arising by mitigating risk and driving compliance and consistency; we also make managing the process simpler when ETs do arise.

Review your policies and provide guidance for managers

If your policies are complex, out of date and contain jargon, your managers may find them difficult to interpret and won’t understand the process and their responsibilities, which can result in ER issues not being managed due to lack of manager confidence and capability.

To reduce the risk of this happening, we can simplify and harmonise your policies and even provide step-by-step guidance written specifically for line managers, resulting in them being easy to follow and applied more consistently across your business.
