The 2024 employment tribunal statistics reveal a 13% increase in claims, with a staggering £995K awarded in a sex discrimination case—the highest on record. Not only do these cases drain valuable admin resources, averaging nearly five weeks to resolve, but they can also impose crippling financial burdens, potentially pushing businesses to the brink.
That’s where our HR software’s Disciplinary feature comes in—designed to ease the burden of the disciplinary process and support HR professionals in always staying on the right side of the law by recommending an appropriate sanction based on an employee’s behaviour.
Take the Guesswork Out of Disciplinary Actions
One of the standout tools within our Disciplinary system is our Disciplinary Decider which assists HR teams in determining the most appropriate course of action. Whether it’s mediation, additional training, or formal disciplinary measures, this tool helps ensure a fair approach to managing workplace issues.
HR professionals no longer have to struggle with uncertainty when handling disciplinary matters. With our Disciplinary Decider, you receive legally-backed recommendations that align with company policies and legal compliance, reducing the risk of tribunal claims.
