Business needs change and there may come a time when you want an employee to take on either a new role or amended job description.

We can advise on the best way of steering through changes in a given situation, ensuring that you achieve the flexibility which you need and minimising the risk of a claim for constructive dismissal. An employee may be entitled to apply to you for a change in his or her terms and conditions if the purpose is to enable them to care for a child: will you know how to respond?
