1000s of answers to the most pressing HR and health & safety queries

Issues arise all the time! Legislation changes even more! And sometimes you need immediate answers to all sorts of topics such as:

  • Is it always necessary to suspend an employee when investigating gross misconduct?
  • How do I deal with a flexible working request?
  • Can I fire an employee for being on long-term sick leave?

As employers, we can’t be expected to have all the answers all the time, but legally we have an obligation to give the right answers no matter what.
