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.

team.
