Disputes, under performance, absence and misconduct. These ‘employee relations’ issues occur in even the most harmonious workplaces and they need to be managed carefully but decisively.
Managing employee relations is not a nice part of being an employer and it also comes with a variety of legal risks; unfair dismissal and discrimination claims being top of the list. A bad experience can be expensive and can have reputational consequences.
