Issue
JSB has been delivering regular employment law updates for the HR team at South Wales Police for the last five years. Our client comments that “regular employment law briefings are required to ensure HR staff are up to date with new employment law and are kept aware of emerging issues impacting on the organisation”. Over the past five years legal issues pertinent to HR professionals working within the police force have been plentiful. A host of new legislation coupled with ever changing case law trends mean that tailored, comprehensive and easily digestible employment law updates are essential for South Wales Police’s HR team to confidently advise on employment law issues.
Our Approach
Equipped with superb subject knowledge and a solid understanding of the specific HR issues faced by South Wales Police, JSB’s consultant delivers practical, operationally relevant and engaging one-day updates to a range of key personnel – from HR advisors, analysts and team leaders to equality & diversity officers and occupational health managers. His approach is to present cases and definitions in lay terms and tailor them to the working environment of the participants. Appreciating that not everyone deals with such issues on a day to day basis, our consultant always revisits the ‘basics’ while ensuring that he raises awareness of a broad range of recent and ongoing cases.
Each session is in part shaped by what the participants themselves want to cover. Recently this has covered equality issues including General and Statutory Duties (particularly disability as it relates to the Police Service & Police Regulations), case law from discrimination cases, restructuring, redundancy and redeployment, varying terms and conditions of employment, recruitment and selection, reasonable adjustment, TUPE, absence management, police pension regulations, pay protection and diversity.
Outcome
South Wales Police particularly praises the willingness and ability of JSB to explore various aspects of employment law as it relates to the police service. This approach enables the participants to leave with the confidence in their knowledge to have an immediate impact back in the workplace.
