Employment Protection for Employers
WHAT YOU GET FOR YOUR MONEY
 | Indemnity against the costs of representation at an Industrial Tribunal for any
employment or Health & Safety case (provided you have not acted without my advice). |
| A 24 hour Helpline 364 days a year, to resolve any employment problems before they get
out of hand. |
| New Health & Safety Policy and Organisational Arrangements, tailored to your
business needs. |
| An up-to-date, non-discriminatory employment policy, system and procedures for your
people to use . |
| Free regular Health & Safety audits and reports with recommendations. |
| Health & Safety Plans drawn up to meet the requirements of main contractors or your
clients. |
| A proactive approach to servicing your needs. I don't just wait for you to ring me; I
come to you. |
| Free monthly visits to help you keep ahead. These visits can be used for any purpose
you require - risk assessments, audits, review of disciplinary matters, control of
absenteeism etc. |
| Regular newsletters about
the latest in employment, Health & Safety and environmental legislation. |
| Free annual employment and Health & Safety health check. |
| Free advice and ideas on how to motivate and get the best out of your people. |
| Peace of mind. |
NOT COVERED
| Indemnity against criminal charges arising out of breaches of Health & Safety law
(but following my system of work will minimise the chances of prosecution) |
| Compensation awards to employees (again, following best practice will
minimise the need for compensation to be awarded, and I do carry professional indemnity
insurance to cover these problems) |
WHAT IT COSTS
| The premium is negotiable and depends on the size and type of business. |
| The premium for a typical installation in a construction company could be £10
per employee per month for the first year and £8 per employee per month in the second and
third years. |
| A Golf Club might pay £4.50 per employee per month for over 10 employees. |
| This is less that 1% of a typical payroll. It should be recouped easily
within the first year by performance improvements. |
| Premiums are subject to full tax relief. |
| It is a small price to pay for peace of mind, and could save you thousands! |
"Being a small firm should not put you at a disadvantage. Expert advice is always
