While the present government has said that they want to make employment law less complicated there are still some new rulings that you need to be aware of. Employers who fail to comply with employment law could find that they are taken to a tribunal and ordered to pay compensation to an employee. An employment law solicitor is a necessity for today's employers as advice given at the right time could save you spending thousands of pounds on compensation.
This year the law governing temporary agency workers is due to change. In the past, agency workers were paid by the agency and what they earned often bore no resemblance to what a permanent employee might have been paid for the same job. The new law will mean that if a temporary worker has been with your company for twelve weeks or more, they will have to be paid the correct rate for the job, which means you, the employer will be funding the difference. An employment law solicitor will be able to advise you in changes pertaining to the law and it may be that you will need to look closely at the length of time you have agency workers on your books. If you fail to make the payment to agency workers who have been with you for the required period then you could end up in front of a tribunal.
All employees are entitled to ask for time off for training purposes so that they can expand their skills. While companies will benefit from a better trained workforce, small businesses may not be able to fund this type of change. Yet another area that will put stress on small businesses concerns the issues connected with parental leave. Women already have extra maternity leave under the law and employers are bound to keep their jobs open. While maternity leave is good for women, small businesses may find the problems and expenses of taking on agency workers for that period could be a problem.
Legally you cannot ask a woman if she plans to have a family and discriminating on this basis could land you in a lot of trouble. Your employment law solicitor will be able to advise what is best for your business and how you can get the best out of some unfavourable situations. An employment law solicitor will not only be able to advise you of current and changing employment law, they will also be able to advise you on health and safety regulations and workplace policies and practices.

The Family Court is a kangaroo court because of its predictable and unconstitutional outcome - an outcome that deprives a father of his children, and most all his fundamental rights.
