Employee disputes
Your job would be so much easier if you didn’t have to deal with people!
This is said only slightly tongue in cheek because we all know that most business and employer to employee disputes start with misunderstanding, personality clashes or downright pig headedness by one or both parties. But the reality of business life is that we all have to deal with people – the problem is if we get it wrong it can cost our companies hundreds or even thousands of pounds.
According to a survey conducted by law firm Nabarro, disputes with employees, colleagues, customers and suppliers cost the UK economy £33 billion a year. Two thirds of employers fail to educate staff on how to avoid and manage them, with more than half even leaving senior managers to sink or swim.
If you’ve ever been involved in an employee dispute, been unfortunate to take a case to employment tribunal ,or had a customer or supplier dispute escalate to the point where it reaches Court you’ll know how draining this can be in terms of management time, moral, personal and emotional input.
