HR Clinic

Our HR Clinic is different to any "legal" helpline that you may have access to, in that it gives you step-by-step, practical guidance as to what you need to do specifically in order to address the problem you face. The Clinic is open once a month, at PETA, where you will be able to discuss any sensitive employment issues with our HR and Employment Law Adviser in a confidential environment. The service is discreet and impartial, and enables you to handle sensitive employee matters with confidence. Our Adviser can tell you what to do practically to address the issue you may have, so you can rest assured your actions are correct.

Examples of issues that our Clinic can help with:

• Handling sickness/long term absence
• Compensation and benefits packages
• Flexible working arrangements and maternity/paternity/parental leave
• Handling redundancies and restructure
• Working with Trade Unions/Employee Councils
• Appraisals and performance management
• Bullying and harassment
• Recruitment process
• Contracts of Employment
• International assignments/relocation policies
• Immigration (points based system (PBS) and employing foreign workers)
• Avoiding discrimination
• Discipline and grievance, dismissals, employment tribunals
• Transfers, mergers and acquisitions, due diligence and TUPE
• Equality and Diversity

The above is not exhaustive however it does give an indication of the types of problems the HR Clinic can help you address in a professional manner and in line with current Employment Law Legislation.
