Course Details
Making cuts is never a nice process. It is often uncomfortable for employers and employees alike.
The law is very specific about processes and procedures that should be followed when making redundancies and failure to get things right can result in a costly Employment Tribunal claim.
Employers also need to consider their employer brand and how they keep staff who are left behind feeling secure and motivated. This course will help employers and staff understand how to manager redundancies and restructures effectively.
Jemma Fairclough-Haynes covers the following topics during this session:
- What is a redundancy
- When to make redundancies
- How to make redundancies
- Alternatives to redundancy
- Looking after staff who are remain employed
