Employment Matters for Employers
cat_your_business.jpgWhoever our clients may be, our aim at Veitch Penny is to offer comprehensive practical advice on all aspects of employment law and practice, and in the event that a dispute arises, to reach the best solution possible for our client.

For most employers, staff costs are the highest overhead the employer will have to bear, and most employers are concerned about the level of management time required to manage the workforce and comply with apparently ever changing employment legislation.  Developments take place at such a rapid pace that it is virtually impossible for employers to be able to deal effectively with employment issues.  It is all too easy for employers to inadvertently make a mistake which can be expensive financially but also in terms of management time, disruption to the business and the negative effect on employee morale.


Proper management of staff issues will help to ensure that your clients and customers receive a better service from you and your business.  With this in mind, it is vital that any dispute is carefully handled and advice obtained from a professional at an early opportunity.
 
 
 
 
Sickness and Capability Issues

Dealing with employees who are off sick long-term or, alternatively, are frequently taking short periods of intermittent sick leave, can be problematic and time consuming for managers.  

Our advice is practical yet sensitive to the situation.  We aim to ensure minimal disruption to the business, maintain the employment relationship where appropriate and, ultimately, to minimise the risk of litigation. 

 
 
Unfair Dismissal

We regularly assist employers whilst dealing with dismissal or disciplinary issues within the workplace. 

We also advise and assist employers with the conduct of grievance procedures.  At all times, it our goal to advise and represent our employer clients cost-effectively and efficiently.
