Employee Relations Service

HELPING TO PROTECT YOUR MOST VALUABLE ASSET – YOUR WORKFORCE

Good employee relations provides an open and honest communication between management, their employees and trade unions. Employee relations strengthen the employer/employee relationship by identifying and resolving workplace issues. We have been able to successfully support schools on a range of complex employee relations issues which include disciplinaries, grievances, sickness absences, performance management, change management and employment tribunals.

Good employee relations ensure there is a healthy and productive work environment which is ultimately beneficial to pupils.

Benefits

You will also receive support from The Education Space with effective consultation and negotiation on a range of individual and collective employee relations matters. This helps to enable an early resolution to problems and ensures that they are resolved with appropriate risk management.
