The big question for HR teams is, are you and your operational manager colleagues, ready for redundancies? Concrew Training can help. Contact us today.

As the UK comes out of #lockdown it is becoming increasingly clear that #redundancies will rise exponentially. Social distancing measures coupled with customer reluctance will hit hard. Many businesses will struggle to reach anything like their pre lockdown turnover levels. #Redundancy #training will be needed.

Retail, hospitality and leisure will be hit especially hard but there will be a knock on effect, consumer spending power will fall and the fear of the unknown will mean larger purchases are delayed. This will rock through the whole economy affecting virtually every sector.

Businesses will have little choice; they will need to re-align the size of their workforce to the post virus economy. This means redundancies are almost inevitable.

Hence the big question, are you and your operational manager, colleagues ready?

It is imperative for all involved that the redundancy process is legal and fair, well communicated and executed. Getting it wrong increases the stress and worry for all, damages moral and commitment and opens the company up to unwanted adverse publicity and unfair dismissal claims.

Concrew Training offers training and support for HR teams and operational managers to help them understand, the law, good practice and how to get the redundancy process right.
