Drogheda & District Chamber are proud to host this event, in collaboration with their Strategic HR Partners, Adare Human Resource Management who are the leading experts in Employment Law, Industrial Relations and best practice Human Resource Management.
What is this webinar about?
Conflict is on the rise again as employers seek to bring in new working practices, the return to workplaces has adopted a stop start pattern, employee turnover is high and frustrations within teams are building. The skill of conflict resolution at the point of early intervention is critical to manage employee difficulties. This webinar will guide employers in the practical steps to take when a complaint has been brought to their attention, including what not to do.
Join HR, Employment Law and Health and Safety experts as they discuss this topic in detail exploring practical considerations, answer key questions and provide guidance for businesses on what they need to do and what they should consider in this area.
Why you should join this webinar? We will be discussing:
-
Overview of the legally required policies that should be in place in all organisations
-
Examination of the key policies required by the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) Inspectors – grievance, anti-bullying, harassment, disciplinary

Importance of using informal processes and early intervention in the right way
-
The role of Mediation

Attendees will learn how to tackle scenarios from day one and how best to apply organisational policies of anti-bullying, harassment, grievance and disciplinary. This will enable them to proactively identify issues that may evolve into conflict and intervene to manage the scenario towards early resolution, limiting costs for the Organisation.
This will be an interactive session with questions encouraged from attendees.
