Legal Services: Employment
Helping you to manage your people and your workplace
Understanding employment law
As you prepare to engage the workforce of the future, navigate global markets for talent and adapt to changing customer and employee expectations, it’s vital to understand the rapidly developing employment law landscape and manage your associated people related risks.
How you recruit, manage, protect and retain employees needs an agile approach, based on insight, to balance risk, unlock potential and identify opportunities for growth and transformation.
How are you responding to critical employment challenges?
The future of work
How we work, our place of work and what we mean by “work” is being transformed. What does this mean for your business and how will it adapt in a legally compliant way?
Getting the right talent mix, managing turnover and upskilling to grasp the opportunities created by technology innovation (such as AI and automation) requires careful planning and awarnesss of regulatory risk.
Managing complexity
People-related risks are increasingly challenging, particulary in a complex and rapidly developing regulatory landscape and at a time of significant uncertainty.
Do you have a clear understanding of your obligations to your people and their responsibilities to your business? How are you keeping that understanding up-to-date? Can you manage emloyee experience and risk in times of change?
The shifting employee-employer relationship
Purpose, values and employee activism are changing the relationship between organisations and their people.
Are your teams able to adapt to this shifting dynamic and how this will impact your workforce relations? When the time comes, how will you engage individually and collectively with your people (and the unions or works councils who represent them) to achieve the outcomes you need on a local and global level?
Transparency, trust and equality
Fairness and equality is no longer a gold standard. It is vital in the modern business world to attract and retain talent and ensure that trust in business is maintained. Is your workplace diversity agenda robust enough to ensure your people are treated in the right way and to protect your brand from adverse public perception?
