Employee relations & works councils

HRR Solutions Ltd offers advice and consultancy support for business wishing to set up or improve the performance of their employee representative forums, or works councils. HRR Solutions has a substantial client base in this area and has conducted employee relations assignments for many large and medium sized employers, including Cadbury, Geest, Bakkavor, Mission Foods, The Gruma Corporation, Katsouris Fresh Foods, Coca-Cola, British Bakeries, Sun Chemicals and a host of SME businesses.

With Information and Consultation regulations applying to employers of 50 or more workers from April 2008, employers would be well advised to consider entering into voluntary information and consultation agreements with their workers, rather than wait for a less flexible statutory route to be imposed. HRR Solutions can help design and implement these arrangements for employers, oversee elections, train employee representatives and managers in their responsibilities, and provide ongoing support to both employer and employee representatives. Packages are available by individual quotation.
