Issuing your staff with a contract of employment and having in place a company staff handbook is a must for all businesses. Our team at Howarths have the skills required to make sure these documents are legally compliant, but also fit for your business, however big or small. We work with all our clients on a continuing basis to ensure that not only do they have the necessary documentation in place, but it is kept up to date with changes in the law. In addition, we understand your business requirements can change. Our team will therefore be on hand to tweak your documentation to ensure it is always bespoke to your needs, keeping you compliant and adding value to your business.
Howarths can introduce all its clients to a long-standing and trusting provider of Legal Expenses Insurance. Howarths have worked with Composite Legal Expenses (Composite Legal Expenses Limited is Authorised and Regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority) for over 10 years now and have built up a strong relationship which allows Howarths clients to benefit from having the option to put in place a policy to protect against the costs of an Employment Tribunal. Whilst you will always receive the best and most robust advice from our Advisory Team, there are those employees who will always consider litigation. This option provides additional peace of mind to our clients to know that provided adequate advice has been taken, and there is a reasonable prospect of defending any such claim, the policy should kick in to cover all costs associated with defending such action.
Upskilling your management team is not an optional extra. To take your business to the next level, it is critical that your management team are equipped for the task of leading their team. Naturally, this involves managers having at least a working knowledge of HR and Employment Law so that they can act in the right way when faced with challenging situations. At Howarths, we offer a range of Employment Law training sessions in all areas including discipline and grievance, discrimination law, equality on recruitment, redundancy, managing poor performance and sickness absence, to name just a few. We can hold larger scale events for up to 10 managers on a range of management topics, or smaller more bespoke sessions for 1-2 managers with one of our qualified Employment Law Advisors.
