As a manager you would be amazed at how much you do not know – but need to know – about your staff’s employment rights, and your own!
You may think that all this is covered by your HR Department, you should think again. Dealing with an increasingly ethnically, culturally and more rights-conscious workforce you really need to have at the very least the basics covered.
It is knowing that recruitment can be as fraught with difficulties as dismissal; appreciating the subtleties of contracts of employment and being able to handle changes to them; having up-to-date information on statutory rights to time-off in a wide range of instances; avoiding breaches in discrimination rules plus much more.
This 8 week written, distance learning course will literally ‘open your eyes’ to the labyrinth of your staff’s statutory rights, requirements and your obligations which can, and will, affect how you manage your people.
Managers and executives at all levels will find this course sharpens their HR knowledge and improves their decision-making as a result. This includes:
MODULE 1 THE RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESS
The Seven Stages of an Effective Recruitment Process*
HR Procedures
MODULE 2 EXAMINING TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT
MODULE 3 UNDERSTANDING ‘FAMILY FRIENDLY’ RIGHTS
MODULE 4 DISCRIMINATION LAW
MODULE 5 DISCIPLINE PROCEDURES
MODULE 6 UNDERSTANDING PAY AND BENEFITS
MODULE 7 MANAGING SICKNESS AND ABSENCE EFFECTIVELY
MODULE 8 ENDING THE EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP

The Academy for Distance Learning in Business (ADLiB1) has developed out of Falconbury’s pioneering work on short-course management and professional development.
As with the face-to-face training we do in our public and in-house programmes, our focus is on the practical and application-rich skills and techniques, which will enable individuals to develop their full potential as managers and professionals.
Our approach to distance learning is to use the self-study method at its best to make sure that you can flexibly acquire the knowledge and understanding of each chosen area in a way that suits you and your current work commitments.
ADLiB was set up to give a consistent approach across different subject areas, so that its users would know that our rigorous standards of excellence would be met in each course.
Every programme and each of the component modules is a combination of the training and learning expertise of Falconbury and input from its wide range of practically skilled writers and trainers. Where a course bears the ADLiB logo, you can be sure that our (and your) exacting standards will be met.
