By the end of this session participants will be aware of:
• The areas currently covered by employment equality legislation;
• The key elements of this legislation;
• The responsibilities that they place on employers.

Seminar 2: Handling Discipline and Grievance

This seminar gives practical guidance on how to manage discipline and grievance issues effectively in the workplace and outlines:

• The legislative framework surrounding discipline and grievance

Both seminars will provide participants with the opportunity to explore practical case studies highlighting relevant issues and factors to consider.
