Discipline, Dismissal And Grievance Introduction In addition to clarifying the complex mandatory rules that were introduced by the Employment Law Act, this course will provide employers with practical assistance in the administration of a disciplinary sanction, including dismissal, or the handling of a grievance. Getting it right has never been so important. More notably since recent legislation changes, failure to deal with matters properly can result in a punitive uplift in compensation by up to 50%. Every employer needs to ensure that they are adequately protected against the risks of litigation. Although managers will rarely relish handling disciplinary and grievance matters, the course will provide them with the knowledge necessary to expedite matters effectively and safely.
