How can I maintain HR and Health & Safety professionally?

BACKGROUND

Human Resources, Health & Safety are all essential elements in any pharmacy. It is a legal requirement. The laws are designed to ensure that employers and employees work in a safe environment and to minimise danger as much as possible.

For example, when was the last time you conducted manual handling training? Would you be covered if somebody injured themselves because they did not lift something properly? Disputes relating to contractual and employment issues can also cause significant issues. Employment tribunals are both expensive and could result in a serious loss of reputation in your business.

Having robust and up to date processes and procedures can significantly support your business and ensure that you stay on the right side of the law. The consequences of getting it wrong are serious!

As you are aware we continually strive to bring the best support and services to all our members.

With this in mind we are more than happy to get our members in direct contact with the leading providers of Human Resources/Employment Law and Health and Safety services to the Pharmacy Profession.
