As a BITA member we will help you find your way through the employment minefield.
At BITA we recognise the complex issues that employment regulations can raise for our members. It’s difficult to keep ahead of this rapidly evolving area of law. To assist our members, we have secured the services of The HR Dept to offer advice to you on all issues relating to people management and employment law.
Free access to The HR Dept advisors
BITA members have access to The HR Dept advisers either in one of their offices or over the telephone. Typical issues that you may wish to discuss with an expert could include:
- Contract review
- Dismissals
- Performance management
- Absence management
- Recruitment
- Redundancy projects
- TUPE transfers
- Employee relations
- Training and development
The HR Dept will allocate an hour, either in one of their offices or by telephone to give an expert opinion on the HR issues within your workplace. This is the chance to ask those tricky questions and will include time to read any documents that you may wish to seek advice on. The HR Dept advisers will advise you on the steps that you need to take and where you may be able to get support. You will receive a written summary of the advice.
Each member is entitled to a one hour session in any twelve month period. Advice is restricted to matters affecting the member organisation. The HR Dept does not advise individuals on personal employment issues.
