Workforce management

You may be a small employer without the support of a human resources department, or you may be a large employer with a dedicated team of human resources professionals. Either way, Mark Minns has advised employers on a very wide range of issues relating to the management of their workforces.

Workforce management can be a time consuming and sensitive exercise. Mark Minns is experienced in supporting businesses in the management of their staff from running a legally compliant disciplinary process to the running of a collective redundancy exercise to flexible working requests.

We can help with drafting letters, by providing a briefing prior to meetings or by being available to offer a second opinion on a proposed course of action.

In particular, Mark Minns’ experience includes:

  • Disciplinary and dismissal procedures
  • Grievance procedures
  • Collective and individual redundancy consultation
  • Business restructures
  • TUPE transfers
  • Managing sickness absence and stress issues
  • Promotion of the equality of opportunity
  • Flexible working, maternity and paternity
  • Part time and fixed term staff
  • Working time
  • Public interest disclosure and whistleblowing
