Hot HR Weekly Digest & Blog 16th - 20th May

Hello and welcome to this week's Hot HR weekly digest and blog!  I hope you find it useful and informative.

Welcome to Hot HR’s new members this week! Please continue to recommend the group to any HR contacts that you might have.  The aim of the group is for information and ideas to be available via Hot HR, with people feeling that they can contribute to an open discussion, focussing on real issues and quality discussion.


Hot HR has lots of plans for the future to enhance the quality and services offered by being a member of this specialist group, so keep checking the group to see what is happening and what is Hot in HR.  Please feel free to make any recommedations or suggestions. 

As usual, the format of this blog and Weekly Digest takes the form of:

  • The week's Speed Read posted by Harmajinder Hayre from Ward Hadaway, the only employment law specialist within the Hot HR group
  • Interesting Read - topical information posted in the group
  • Question Time - most popular question or discussion from within the group

  1. A new 'quick start guide' for Public Sector organisations
  2. Employment Law Review Announced
  3. Guidance on Agency Worker's Regulations published


Question Time  - The key questions and discussions of interest started in the last week are:
 

"Hi All I am new to the group and looking forward to some excellent discussions
For a starter can anyone shine a light on the Swedish Derogation in the AWR?"


"I am reviewing our Disciplinary Procedure. Any views on the Investigating Manager role? To prepare a report limited to the facts or make a recommendation on whether a disciplinary meeting is needed?"


Interesting Read/Discussion -    Counting the cost of poor mental arithmetic.
 

Do you find that poor levels of reading, writing and arithmetic are an issue within your business, particularly recruitment? Do you carry out pre-employment testing? Share your thoughts and comments at Hot HR
