Course programme
It seems today that the rules surrounding disciplinary and grievance in the workplace have grown many grey areas. Its reported that businesses apply the rules in different ways or even inconsistencies in the procedure in one business is common place.
People are becoming much more aware of what their rights are meaning if an employer does have to discipline a member of staff they have to get it absolutely right. Get it wrong and you leave yourself open to employment tribunals and a whole host of other things.
Businesses have to stick to quite strict guidelines when it comes to dealing with disciplinary. Larger organisations tend to have Human Recourses or Personnel departments who will apply and provide guidance on these policies. Smaller businesses may have to rely on a manager, or even yourself to apply these policies. No matter how big or small the business, the rules have to be followed.
Gone are the days when someone can be 'sacked on the spot'. Businesses need to prove that they have given an employee every opportunity to improve in their work, unless of course its an act of gross misconduct.
In this session we will demystify what you can and can't do. We'll look at:
· What the law says
· The difference between conduct and capability
· What you can/should do before getting to the disciplinary stage
· Dealing with conduct and capability issues
· Disciplinary process and meetings
· Suspension
· Dismissal inc constructive dismissal
· How to avoid all of these things in the first place
In April 2009 the law is changing surrounding Disciplinary, we'll also look at what these changes are to ensure you are fully prepared.
We have delivered this workshop to previous clients who all report an increase in confidence.
The session is very interactive with lots of discussion, role-play scenarios and an action planning session.
Prior to the session you will receive detailed joining instruction that highlight the learning objectives and what you need to do to prepare. You will also leave the course with an action plan that details how you will transfer the learning back to your organisation.
