Was Your Christmas Party a Headache for HR?

By Laura Duffy

January 8, 2007

Has your organisation had to dismiss somebody because of their party antics?  Are you disciplining an employee as a result of their unsavoury actions at a company event?  This problem may be made easier if you had communicated acceptable behaviour guidelines.

According to Fullbright & Jaworski Solicitors, litigation is on the increase across all business sectors.

• 78% of UK businesses have faced court action over the last 12 months (+66% on 2004/2005).
• 17% (or one in five) expect to see an increase in legal disputes over the next year.

To deal with these ever increasing demands, HR professionals must adopt best practice in relation to communicating  to staff on a consistent and regular basis.  MetaCompliance Policy Communicator software ensures staff have read, understood and signed up to key policies.
