The workshop will provide the tools to manage risk and issues to your business and facilitate improved attendance. We will focus on practice and procedure to adopt at an early stage when an employee takes sick leave and the steps to take to ensure a quick return to work or, where appropriate, effect a fair dismissal and avoid costly Employment Tribunal claims.

Delegate Toolkit
Each delegate will receive a Toolkit containing practical guidance on good employment practices. It will help you to understand and implement the tools you have learnt and contains a comprehensive range of support materials such as flowcharts, checklists, example letters and forms to ensure your delivery is legally compliant.
