In July the Supreme Court ruled that employment tribunal fees are unlawful. As a result the 70% decrease in Employment Tribunals since fees were introduced in 2013 will most definitely be reversed and employers need to make sure that they are ready to avoid a tribunal, meaning that business owners more than ever need to be up to scratch with the sort of things listed below: -
• Contracts of employment
• Manage changes in employment law due in 2017/18
• Prevent employees from taking long term sickness
• Implement effective key performance indicators that will guarantee improved productivity
• Auto-enrolment
• Living wage and other rates of the minimum wage
• Early conciliation (Changes to tribunal proceedings)
• Absence management
• Maternity and paternity
• Age/sex/race/disability discrimination
