If you work in the hospitality sector, you don’t need us to say it’s been a difficult time. You may have found your venues closed. You’ve probably become experts in furlough. You’ve no doubt spent even more time keeping the premises clean! As a result, tensions are bubbling over for your staff, and you’ve probably become overloaded with HR questions to put things right.
But who’s got the budget to pay for a high street solicitor? If you’re seeking quick advice on employment law, it usually means an extortionate hourly rate.
Sound familiar? Read on, this blog post is for you!
Our latest partner exists to make these troubling times easier. UKHospitality, who boast a membership of over 100,000 venues across the UK, act as the single voice for the industry, and work tirelessly to help hospitality businesses such as pubs and bars, restaurants, hotels, nightclubs, wedding venues, leisure and attractions, contract catering and those who supply the industry thrive in a difficult market.
That’s why they’ve chosen us as their resident HR experts. Together, we want to work to relieve the pressure on hospitality managers, streamline their processes and improve their prospects as the hospitality and tourism market kicks back into action. To contribute to this goal, we’re pleased to announce we’re opening our HR advice helpline for free, exclusively for UKHospitality members.
Our exclusive HR advice line will be available for UKH members from 9am till 5pm, Monday to Friday.
UKHospitality members, can access the advice line via the member portal. Simply give us a call, and our experts will be on hand to help with any HR employment law issues—absolutely free!
