Why choose our HR and workplace solicitor solution for your business?
Unlike many HR consultants, Stephensons deal directly with tribunal claims and have an insight into how the tribunals deal with employment law in practice. With this experience, Stephensons are best placed to support your business with HR and employment law advice.
You will not be passed from one person to the next giving you generic guidance. Instead, you will provided with a dedicated solicitor in the team who will be your relationship manager. They will get to know you and your business and give you specific advice about how to reach the resolution you need.
Workplace Plus removes the difficulty of dealing with HR matters so that you can focus your time on running your business whilst our team of fully qualified advisers and solicitors take care of things on your behalf.
Other benefits of the Workplace Plus package include:
- Employment tribunal claims continue to increase year on year - Stephensons have over a 95% success rate of resolving disputes internally without them being escalated to an Employment Tribunal.
- A significant number of changes are expected as a result of the Employment Rights Bill including day one rights for unfair dismissal. With Workplace Plus your polices and procedures will be fully audited by Stephensons to deal with any new changes. We will keep your business fully appraised, trained and supported.
- No risk as to fees and costs - claimants face zero fees to bring a case and respondents generally cannot recover their costs. Stephensons’ Workplace Plus has built-in insurance to cover your legal costs and compensation up to £100,000 per claim.
- Average claims now take a year to resolve, but Stephensons have a proven track record of resolving claims within 3-6 months of issue.
- Save on HR Manager salaries - HR Managers typically earn between £55,000 and £62,000. Protecting your business with Workplace Plus saves on these high salary costs. By outsourcing to Stephensons at a fixed price, your business will save on rising salaries and National Insurance costs.
- Research shows businesses can face up to a 25% decline in customer trust following a legal case, and all judgments are reported publicly online. However, in following advice at the earliest stage possible, Stephensons will navigate a path to protect confidentiality and your business interests.
