Dispute resolution: out with the old, in with the new
thursday 13 November 2008
Since their introduction in 2004, the statutory dispute resolution procedures have been widely criticised for creating unnecessary bureaucracy and large amounts of satellite litigation. In response to this criticism, the Government has announced that the procedures will be scrapped in April 2009 and will be replaced by new, more flexible rules.
At this HR Forum, partner Chris Middleton looked at what employers will be expected to do under the new rules and what the consequences of not complying with them will be. The session used case studies to look at what effect the new rules are likely to have on how employers and employees approach workplace disputes and whether they really will provide greater flexibility.
