Protection when you need it most
As an employer you have many responsibilities and obligations to your staff, with new employment regulations and legislation being introduced all the time. Keeping up to date with the latest employment law changes can guard against the significant financial penalties of non-compliance, giving you the peace of mind to get on with the day to day running of your business.
A financial safeguard
The threat of an employment dispute is an increasing one in today’s workplace, and with unlimited awards for discrimination, and awards for unfair dismissal rising above £50,000 it really pays to protect your business. A simple insurance policy can do just that, ensuring you are covered against potential claims including:- unfair dismissal
- discrimination on the grounds of disability, race, sex or sexual orientation
- maternity or paternity leave
- flexible working
- discipline and grievance
- age discrimination.
