June Blog

This month is a busy month with us helping clients with a variety of matters, including reorganisations, reviewing policies and disciplinary procedures, advice work and conducting employment tribunals. The work continues to cover the spectrum of the economy in terms of the client's area of commercial activity and size of organisation. Most of our SME clients are around the Coventry area but our national clients which form the bulk of the work are of course across the country.

The work we are conducting still tends to include a high level of employment tribunal work and our thinking is this will probably not alter, particularly with the effects of the public sector cuts on the way.

We continue to produce free guides for clients and contacts and have received a significant number of requests for these guides. The requests have come from a variety of sources including HR professionals from large companies, HR consultants and some solicitors.

Our latest newsletter includes a guide on the law relating to employment contracts and clarifies some of the confusion that reigns on the issue of amending contracts of employment. Anyone who wants a copy of this should simply e-mail me at robert.kerr@shieldhr.co.uk
