EMPLOYMENT LAW SOLICITORS FOR THE CARE SECTOR 

As an employer, you will find that both employment law and your business are rapidly changing. Failure to properly understand and correctly apply employment law could cost you directly in the value of a tribunal claim, but also indirectly in loss of productivity and reduced morale. A successful claim against you can, in some cases, threaten your entire business. 
 
In the past few years, we have seen an increase in the number of enquiries from workers and employers in the care sector. 
 
The care sector faces it's own unique employment challenges, which impact the type of disputes you may face. We use our experience and understanding of the care sector to help respond to legal claims you face or, even better, reduce the risk of legal disputes altogether.  
 

WE CAN HELP WITH COMMON PROBLEMS IN THE CARE SECTOR 

Staff shortages and high turnover, which may be helped by restrictive covenants in your contracts.  
High rates of injury and disability. 
High potential for whistleblowing. 
A highly female workforce, which means you're likely to face issues relating to pregnancy, maternity leave and menopause. Mistakes could leave you open to discrimination claims. 
High stress and responsibility. 
Long hours and low pay. 
Lack of managers means roles are filled internally, often by people without managerial experience. This may lead to poor performance, but can be helped by good policies
Changes in demand, with more desire for care at home than residential care. This may lead to redundancies or TUPE transfers.
