  • HR Unboxed #2 - An Avalanche Of Employment Law

    Welcome to Episode 2 of HR Unboxed with Natalie and Faye! 🎙️

    In this episode, we kick things off by sharing our incredible experience climbing Mount Snowdon for charity! 🏔️

    Together, we raised £650 for French Bulldog Rescue, and we’re diving into how teamwork was the key to making it to the top. Join us as we discuss why working together is essential in any challenge, whether it's scaling a mountain or tackling a tough project at work.

    Next, we’re unpacking the 60 upcoming changes to employment law following the change in Government. With so many adjustments on the horizon, it’s crucial for businesses to stay informed and compliant. We’ll share how Rebox HR is helping our clients prepare for these sweeping changes.

    Finally, we delve into the case of the week: The Singing Employee. A head chef at a hotel was awarded £80,000 at a tribunal after enduring inappropriate behaviour caused by a colleague singing a song at work. This case raises important questions about workplace banter—can it ever be truly innocent, or does it risk crossing the line into harassment?

    Tune in for valuable insights, legal updates, and a dose of inspiration!
