People Training

Managing People

How are your people managed?

Proper, effective training can:

1. Help minimise the risk of successful employment law claims

2. Ensure that your staff are familiar with your company policies and procedures

3. Assist your managers in identifying problems at an earlier stage and identify appropriate actions to take

4. Reduce "wasted" management time

5. Stop issues escalating

6. Reduce sickness absence and absenteeism

7. Ensure staff are aware of acceptable workplace behaviours

Whether you are implementing a new contract or staff handbook, reorganising your business, or seeking any of the goals referred to above, people training can help.

How it works

We focus on the issues that you consider to be important to your organisation.

Before we start to prepare any training, we will meet with you to discuss your specific requirements so that we can make relevant suggestions. As a result of the initial discussion we can design a training programme that is informative, cost effective and beneficial to your staff and managers.

Our training is always prepared with an aim to deliver simple and clear messages.  We seek to engage the audience by using relevant and tailored case studies, role plays and handouts, as appropriate.

We see the purpose of our training sessions as highlighting the key issues and the practical steps employers and managers can implement to promote and protect their business. We do not expect all attendees to become experts in the field, but they should leave our training sessions with a basic understanding of the main  principles, and critically have gained the essential skills to enable them to identify when there is a problem, how to manage the situation and when it may be appropriate to seek expert guidance.

We are always happy to answer questions during our training sessions and provide information that can be used for future reference.

Typical training topics

Typical training packages which you may like to consider may be in the following areas:

1. The "do's and don'ts" of recruiting staff

2. Managing Poor Performance

3. Managing Sickness Absences

4. Dealing with Disciplinaries and Grievances

5. Equal Opportunities including dealing with harassment claims

We will discuss with you the appropriate way to deliver the training and always ensure that the training is interactive, with a practical approach.

We can tailor the training to the needs of your staff and discuss with you which of your key staff and managers would need to attend.

How much does it cost?

This would depend upon your requirements, including the number of attendees and the length of the session. After discussing your requirements we will come up with a suggested package and a suggested cost. We are happy to agree with you a fixed cost, so that you always know where you stand.
