Our line manager service provides clear, simply written
briefings on employment law and good practice specially designed for line
managers.
Our line manager briefings do not assume any previous
knowledge of the law or principles of human resource management and they are
written in plain English, avoiding legal jargon and technical language.
Full of practical examples and top tips, and complete with
'test yourself' questions, they are a perfect training tool to ensure line
managers deal with job applicants and manage workers in accordance with the law
and good practice.
We will be adding new briefings on a range of topics and
welcome your feedback along with suggestions for further briefings. Please email the editorial team.
