With our assistance we can help you manage your HR and significantly reduce the risks of an employment dispute whilst protecting your balance sheet against any costs and awards associated with a dispute claim
Throughout the UK there is an employment tribunal claim made every 5 minutes. Employers now face a far greater risk of damaging employment disputes than their existing risks such as a fi re or theft. There has been a 15% increase in tribunal claims in the past year and an increase of 26% in respect of multiple-employee claims. In fact with the exception of race discrimination, all claim types showed an upward trend, with equal pay claims showing a staggering 155% increase.* Most businesses are unaware that the maximum compensatory award for unfair dismissal increases annually and currently stand at £66,600* and that there is no limit for the many and varied forms of discrimination claims. Does your business have the means to pay such an award as well as the expensive legal costs?
