World cup hangover

Many employers will be breathing a sigh of relief now that the World Cup is over, with the increased requests for time off, or questionable requests for sick leave.

Whilst most employers expressed a desire to be sympathetic to requests for unexpected annual leave, the conflict with the need to manage customer and clients’ expectations led to many difficult decisions needing to be taken.

Employers may have found that their hands were tied due to poorly drafted, or non-existent, policies in relation to time off work and sick leave.

If that is the case, why not take this opportunity to review these, and other, policies of your business, and bring them up to date – after all, the European Championships are only 2 years away!

Handley Brown can carry out an informal review of your policies free of charge, and if we consider that improvements or amendments are required, then we can then discuss these with you. Contact us now on 0800 002 9698 for a no-obligation discussion
