In 2011, the Federal Magistrates Court sounded a warning to all Human Resources Professionals by issuing personal fines against a HR Manager of $3750 for his part in the employer’s breach of workplace laws.
Magistrates have begun criticising the actions of HR professionals, as the terms of the Fair Work Act list the level of HR expertise in a company a relevant matter for consideration in unfair dismissal cases.
Given that every single employment separation event, whether resignation, dismissal or redundancy, can result in an unfair dismissal claim, the proper handling of every single employee exit from the workplace is fundamental. At least a third of the unfair dismissal claims we defend result from employee resignations.
We specialise in the legal and human management of the employment separation event and our range of HR Partnership Services is unique in their appeal and commercial value.
Many Human Resources Managers find that our total package of contracted support services allows them to focus on the core HR issues, such as employee recruitment, development and retention. Our total package assumes total liability against all unfair dismissal claims and associated fines for every single employment separation event.
Other HR generalists simply require low key retained services which include provision of documentation, policies and guidelines as well as some occasional support to assist in separation events.
Our services are provided by negotiation, individually tailored to the culture and ethos of the organisation. We have no standard packages; we design a package to suit the personality of the HRM and the ethos of the organisation. Our package comes with a comprehensive proposal for submission to your Executive team.
