WHY THESE RESOURCES

HR guidance should help you make a decision.

There is plenty of HR information online. The problem is that managers often have to work through pages of terminology before they get anywhere near an answer.

These resources focus on the practical questions that come up when you're actually managing people: what should I do, what should I consider and what happens next?

THE HR UNFILTERED APPROACH

Practical

Written to be useful in real situations.

Evidence-led

Focused on facts, process and reasonable decisions.

UK focused

Written with UK employment practice and ACAS guidance in mind.

GENERAL GUIDENCE

Every workplace situation is different.

The resources here provide general HR information for UK employers and managers. They are not legal advice, and the appropriate approach will depend on the circumstances of each case and your organisation's procedures.
