When do you need Mentor
There may be an instance where you face problems with an
employee or former employee who believes they have been treated
unfairly. You could even be taken to an employment tribunal by
someone you decide not to recruit.
In the year to March 2010 over 236,000* claims were
accepted by the Employment Tribunals Service - an annual increase
of 156%.
These included complaints of unfair dismissal, discrimination on
grounds of race, sex, age, disability, religion and sexual
orientation, unauthorised deduction of wages, breach of contract,
redundancy pay and many more.
If you get it wrong the results can be extremely damaging for
your organisation. Just think how much this could cost you, not
forgetting the risk of reputational damage?
