Absence Management
Absence can cost your business thousands of pounds a year in lost productivity – the average is nearly £700 per employee annually! We can help you to reduce this amount. Implementing an appropriate absence monitoring system can highlight the areas your business needs to focus on and effective policies and procedures can help to reduce absence - bringing real financial benefits.
Turner Consulting can help you to:
- Implement an absence monitoring system
- Design a policy and procedure to manage sickness absence effectively
- Advise on individual sickness cases both short term and long term
- Provide guidance on other absence issues such as time off for dependants, jury service etc…
Maternity/Paternity and Adoption leave
This is an area many businesses are wary of because of the complex legislation surrounding maternity, paternity and adoption leave. We can help you address your policies and procedures, help you manage the process (including recruitment for maternity cover) and take the stress away from you and your managers.
We can support you by:
- Providing you with legally compliant policies and procedures
- Managing recruitment for maternity cover
- Advising on individual cases
Disciplinary and Grievance
Disciplinaries and grievances can cause businesses all sorts of headaches. The legislation is complex and managing this area can divert a great deal of resources away from running your business – and that is without the risk associated with being taken to tribunal and the large fines which can be ordered if procedures have not been followed.
Consequently it is advisable to deal with all performance, capability and employee relations issues as soon as they arise and to have robust policies and procedures in place to support the business. Turner Consulting is expert in this area – with years of experience dealing with all kinds of employee relations issues. We can support you by:
- Providing clear policies, procedures and standard letter templates
- Giving advice on how to manage individual cases either by phone, e-mail or face-to-face
- Providing training and coaching on how to conduct disciplinary and grievance hearings
- acilitate disciplinary and grievance hearings and appeals
