Illustrative example

Reducing tribunal risk for a 180-employee operator

A regional operator came to us after two employee-relations cases nearly reached tribunal in the same year. Within four months we rebuilt their disciplinary and grievance processes, trained every line manager, and introduced a case-tracking system for HR. No new cases have escalated past a first formal stage since.
