Disciplinary Hearings
Lawful, not awful
No one enjoys a disciplinary meeting, so why not outsource the task to Heneom? We’ll give you the reassurance that your decisions are fair, professionally undertaken and most importantly – lawful.
Don’t feel bad about disciplinary meetings!
Not every job hire is going to work out, so dismissals and disciplinary meetings are part and parcel of running a business. But what you can do is ensure the process is managed fairly, and in keeping with employment legislation and your organisation’s values.
Whether you need support with workplace investigations, coaching on what to say, or a reminder of your legal responsibilities, Heneom is here to help you conduct a disciplinary properly. We won’t step on your toes, but we’ll be there during the disciplinary meeting to give you the calm, knowledgeable ‘security blanket’ you need.
Our experience is second to none, so get in touch with Emma and the team today!
Outsourced disciplinary meetings: the benefits
We can’t promise your disciplinary meeting will be fun, but we’ll help you do a professional job and leave no stone unturned.
Legal guidance
We know employment legislation inside out, so we can advise you on how to conduct a non-discriminatory dismissal.
Holistic planning
Before you reach the dismissal stage, we’ll make sure you’ve covered everything and ruled out mediation.
Dismissal coaching
Not sure what to say during a dismissal? We can talk you through a legally sound disciplinary meeting script.
Extra reassurance
Disciplinary hearings are difficult, but from the workplace investigation to the conclusion, Heneom will provide rock solid support.
Reputation management
A dismissal done badly could become a word-of-mouth disaster. We’ll help you protect your employer brand.
Friendly advice
Emma and the team are always happy to field questions when you need to hear a trusted, independent voice.
Do disciplinaries decisively
Over the years, we’ve overseen so many disciplinary meetings that we could do it with our eyes closed (not recommended).
While the big decisions are ultimately your responsibility, we’ll have the difficult conversations that others might shy away from. We never mince our words, and we’ll help you deliver messages with clarity so you can reduce the risk of a tribunal.
Frankly, the money you spend on hiring Heneom is a priceless investment to protect your future.
Get an independent voice on disciplinaries
Just like with the appeal hearing process, having an HR professional in the room is really important during a disciplinary meeting.
Employees can only be dismissed for valid reasons, and your rationale for dismissal must be consistent with how other staff are treated. If you want an independent, trusted presence who knows how disciplinary and dismissal meetings should operate, outsource the job to Heneom.
We can talk to you in advance about the right language to use, and if you say the wrong thing, we’ll try not to kick you under the table.
