How to Stay Compliant with English Employment Law
With personal support from Jonathan who’s been there, done it – and can do it for you.
Running a business is no small challenge – and managing people adds a whole new layer of complexity. As employment law continues to evolve, staying compliant can feel overwhelming. But the truth is, non-compliance can lead to costly disputes, reputational damage, and unnecessary stress.
That’s where I come in.

Why Staying Compliant Matters
UK employment law protects both employers and employees – but even unintentional missteps can land you in hot water. Common risks include:
- Outdated employment contracts
- Inconsistent disciplinary or grievance procedures
- Poor record-keeping
- Unfair dismissals or redundancy errors
- Discrimination claims
- Failure to manage sickness absences correctly
Being proactive and consistent is key – and that starts with understanding your responsibilities.

Common Questions Business Owners Ask Me
“Do I need to provide a written contract?”
Yes – by law, all employees must receive a written statement of terms on or before their first day.
“Can I dismiss someone during probation?”
You can – but it still needs to be fair and properly documented.
“What if an employee raises a grievance?”
You must follow a structured, impartial process. I can help you handle it efficiently and professionally.
