What will I learn?

As your business adapts and grows, HR needs to be a key consideration. Without it, you open yourself up to tribunal claims, costly pay-outs, reputational damage, and in the most serious cases, business closure. H&S considerations are also vital to maintaining good workplace standards. In 2023, the HSE completed 216 criminal prosecutions, with approximately 8000 notices being issues to business owners. Learning to adapt is key to business success, so it is critical to make sure you get these areas right first time.

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • Protecting the mental health of your staff
  • The risks and rewards of remote & hybrid working
  • Managing staff absence, sickness, and annual leave with confidence
  • How to attract and retain the right candidates
  • Simple steps to improve equality, diversity, and inclusion
  • Addressing the challenges of a workplace restructure
  • Women’s health in the workplace – where HR falls short
  • Why manage Health & Safety?
  • Understanding your H&S responsibilities as an employer
  • Essential health and safety requirements for your business
