Business Transformation
Whether in unionised or non-unionised environments we can help you effectively manage redundancy or transfers of undertakings (TUPE), including your consultation requirements with your employees or union representatives.
We will not only be with you at the consultation table but will ensure all your preparation, execution and follow-up supports positive employee relations.
Employee Relations
Whether you need advice or someone to manage employee relations cases for you, we will ensure that disciplinary matters and grievances are handled with care and sensitivity, whatever the subject.
We also know that managing employees’ absences, be they short-term, long-term or because of disability, can be difficult to navigate. We have plenty of experience in dealing with absence issues that you may not be familiar with, or have the time to manage.
Investigations
Whether an employee’s complaint relates to bullying, harassment or discrimination we have extensive experience in undertaking investigations and will work with you to ensure even the most complex or ambiguous issues are dealt with in a timely, sensitive and pragmatic manner.
Our investigation will give you clear evidence with which to make decisions, and we can also support you through the disciplinary process.
Policies, Contracts and Handbooks
Employee policies, contracts and handbooks can be difficult to keep up to date. Whether you’re starting from scratch, implementing a new policy, or just need your documents reviewed we have the expertise to help.
Changes to employment law are widely expected in post-Brexit UK and at EG Advisory we are keeping a close eye on developments
Training
We can provide “off the shelf” or bespoke training to your HR team and line managers on a variety of employee relations subjects.
We can provide training for your teams in investigating employees’ issues, particularly in those tricky areas of bullying and harassment.
Our “fundamentals of people management” workshop can be tailored to your needs and is built around your people policies to maximise impact.
Our unconscious bias and effective leadership programme is designed for every level in your organisation to reinforce positive attitudes towards everyone in the workplace.
Employment, Workplace and Commercial Mediation
Conflict can occur in any relationship, whether in employment or a commercial relationship. In working relationships it is best dealt with early on to have the best chance of success and avoiding time-consuming and costly grievances or even employment tribunal claims.
Alongside commercial mediation, our Principal Consultant is accredited by the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) to mediate in workplace and employment litigation conflicts. Working with the parties concerned a mediator skilfully manages the process that allows them to find a mutually agreeable resolution.
