Employee relations support

When a people issue needs a fair, documented process.

Disciplinaries, grievances, sickness absence and performance concerns are rarely simple. They involve people you work with every day, and the way they are handled matters as much as the outcome.

We help you understand the situation, plan a fair process and prepare the conversations and records around it. Where the facts are disputed, a structured workplace investigation may be the right first step; where the issue exposes a gap, we can look at your policies and contracts.

When this helps

Situations we can
help you with.

Recognise one of these? Request a callback and we can talk it through.

  • 01
    A conduct concern may need a disciplinary process.
  • 02
    An employee has raised a grievance and you need a clear next step.
  • 03
    Sickness absence is affecting the team and you are unsure how to approach it.
  • 04
    Performance concerns have been discussed informally but nothing has changed.

What we can help with

A practical, agreed scope.

We shape the work around the issue, your existing documents and the support your managers need.

Understand the situation

Review the facts, timeline, relevant policies and what has already been communicated.

Plan the process

Set out the options and the steps needed for a fair, documented approach.

Support the decision

Help managers prepare communications and record the basis for their decisions.

Our approach

Context before conclusions.

First, understand the issue. Then set out the choices, agree the work and document the next step. More about how we work.

OUR PRINCIPLE
How a matter is handled
matters as much
as how it ends.

  3. 03

    Agree scope and terms

    Scope, fees and terms are confirmed in writing before any work begins.

    Support, then review

    We help you put the agreed approach into practice and look at what should change for the longer term.

Before we begin

Clarity on the work.
Clarity on the terms.

How is the work priced?

Scope, fees and terms are agreed before work begins. We will confirm the support and response arrangements in your proposal.

What should I share at the first conversation?

A short outline of the situation and the support you need. Please do not send employee records or sensitive personal details through an initial enquiry.

Can we start with a specific issue?

Yes. We can discuss a focused piece of work and whether ongoing support would be useful. Any further work is scoped separately.

Do you take over the process?

Decisions remain with the employer. We support the people making them with advice, preparation and documentation, within the scope we agree.
