The best employee relationships can break down and if you don’t have a fair and clear process to follow, your company could suffer damage to reputation as well as economic loss. 

You need to ensure that you have the correct disciplinary procedures in place before a problem occurs. Our expert employment law solicitors are here to help you draft your procedures and assist you through any disciplinary process.
