Taking on employees is a key step in the growth and success of any business. But it’s also a tangle of frequently changing rules and regulations! That’s why we’ve created this ‘Staff handbook’ theme page – as a dynamic resource to help keep you up to date at all times.
We use this page to highlight key guidance that’s particularly relevant at any given time. But you’ll find more than documents and publications here. Have a look at the forum to see what other employers are talking about or to ask a question if there’s something that’s confusing you. And keep an eye on our blog, where we’ll provide practical and hands-on advice about the implications for your business of any changes in the law.
Just because an employee falls sick doesn't mean your business has to. We explain the rules you have to follow in respect of time off work and statutory sick pay.
