🚨 Myth Busting Alert: Tribunals Don’t Reject ‘Rubbish Claims’ 🚨

Contrary to popular belief, tribunals aren’t in the business of shutting people out. If someone brings a claim, they’ll almost always get their day in court. ⚖️

That’s why having solid policies and documentation isn’t just a “nice-to-have”- it’s your best defense. A missing policy or poorly tracked process can turn a weak claim into a costly headache.

✅ Pro tip: With the right tools in place - like HRoes - you can keep your policies airtight and always be tribunal-ready.


Our HR Consultancy Treats More HR Emergencies 🚑

UK businesses lose over £183 million annually due to employee theft. As an HR and business leader, you play a pivotal role in safeguarding company assets.

In the latest episode of HR:ER, our HR consultancy had to deal with an employee who was dismissed, took off with the company car, and sparked a tense confrontation when HR visited their home to recover it—escalating to threats of trespassing from their family.

Want to reclaim your company property? Tune in to the HR:ER podcast or contact our employment lawyers, so we can create robust policies to make sure your assets are returned promptly.
