Did you know? The Right to request Flexible Working, starts tomorrow.

New legislation comes into force tomorrow (April 6th) that is designed to encourage more discussion about the possibility of flexible working between employers and their respective employees. Under the terms of the new Flexible Working bill, staff can request flexible arrangements from their very first day on the job – and research conducted among 1,000 UK desk workers by AI-powered platform for work, Slack, indicates that more than half (55%) of the UK workforce will request flexible working hours when the new laws come into effect. Businesses are being advised to prepare themselves for an influx of requests. Chris Mills, Global Head of Customer Success at Slack, said: “The way we work, and employees’ expectations about work, have fundamentally changed over the past few years and flexibility is a key part of that. The research shows it’s an important consideration for people today, and the Flexible Working Bill has brought it back into focus for employees and management.”

Our HR Comment: New legislation on flexible working becomes law tomorrow – 6^th April 2024 |Consensus HR | Herts, Beds

Matthew Chilcott, FCIPD, ACEL, Owner of Consensus HR comments: “The long discussed change to Flexible Working starts tomorrow, Saturday 6^th April 2024 and as indicated in this article from a number of media channels it is anticipated that a large number of employees are going to put in their request, to work flexibly. Employers need to ensure that they have read their companies Flexible Working Policy and that their teams are fully aware of the changes and what is expected by the employer should anybody wish to exercise their right to request a change. As discussed, changes include the right to request from day one of employment, able to request twice a year and changes to the way members of the team apply. Business Owners / Managers need to ensure that when they receive a request that it is managed correctly, fairly and reasonably and to best practice and the law.”

More companies offer staff free testing for ADHD | Consensus HR | Herts, Beds

Matthew Chilcott Blog, Employment Law, General #bedfordshirebusiness, #consensus hr, #consensushr, #equality, #equalityact2010, #equalityanddiversity, #hertfordshirebusinesses, #networkinbeds, #outsourcedemploymentlaw, #outsourcedhumanresources, #outsourcing, Business, Business Owners, hertfordshire, HR, HR Advice, HR Consultant, HR Consultants, HR Support, Small Business, SME, SME's, stevenage

The UK’s largest long-term savings and retirement business, Phoenix Group, has joined a growing list of companies offering to test workers for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) amid concerns that NHS delays are leaving many without support. The entertainment giant Disney is now also offering all employees ADHD and autism assessments under its private healthcare service. The Telegraph notes that magic circle law firms Clifford Chance, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, and Allen & Overy have all introduced workplace schemes which help lawyers with ADHD diagnostics and support. PwC UK also provides testing for neurological conditions including dysgraphia, a disorder where people have difficulty reading and writing.

The Daily Telegraph

Our HR Comment / Advise: More companies offer staff free testing for ADHD | Consensus HR | Herts, Beds

Matthew Chilcott, FCIPD, ACEL, Owner of Consensus HR comments: “ADHD is covered under the Equality Act 2010 and required employers to make reasonable adjustments in the workplace for all members of the team and job applicants. Employees / applicants who have a disability or long-term health condition are covered and ADHD qualifies for both,

Most people with ADHD do not tend to tell their employers as they are worried about any possible repercussions at work. However, employers / members of the management team should encourage an open atmosphere where members of the team can be open and honest, so that if any reasonable adjustments are needed, they are implemented. Employers, should arrange to seek the appropriate medical advice from a medical professional so that the member of team is able to work and not be seen as less capable or as troublesome, especially given the stigma that surrounds ADHD.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity dDsorder (ADHD), autism and dyspraxia are forms of neurodivergence – there are others too. Being neurodivergent will often amount to a disability under the EQa 2010, even if the person does not consider themselves to be disabled.”

Welcome

In this months blogs recap from a selection of our February 2024, blogs we discuss:

Determining an Individuals Employment Status | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds
Proposal to bring back fees in Employment Tribunals and the EAT | Consensus HR – Herts Beds
Britain has a bigger but sicker workforce than previously thought | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds
Government takes action against ‘fire and rehire’ practices | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

Determining an Individuals Employment Status | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

Summary:

When determining an individual’s employment status, it is always important to return to the tests set down in the law as shown in Plastic Omnium Automotive Ltd v Horton.

Law:

Employment status has been the subject of much debate over the years, and a number of significant cases have been brought in an effort to determine where the line lies when it comes to employees, workers, and those not in an employment relationship.

The legal definition of the various status’ can be found in the Employment Rights Act 1996 (ERA 1996). Section 230. Under this, an “employee” means an individual who has entered into or works under a contract of employment.

A “contract of employment” means a contract of service or apprenticeship, whether express or implied, and (if it is express) whether oral or in writing.

Proposal to bring back fees in Employment Tribunals and the EAT | Consensus HR – Herts Beds:

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has launched a consultation into the proposed reintroduction of modest fees in the Employment Tribunals (ET) and Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT).

With full details available at https://consult.justice.gov.uk/digital-communications/introducing-fees-employment-tribunals-eat, it states that the aim is to contribute to the continuous improvement of the Courts and Tribunals Service and to reduce the cost to the taxpayer to fund these services.

The proposal is to introduce “modest fees” for claimants to bring a claim in the ET and appellants bringing an appeal in the EAT.

Britain has a bigger but sicker workforce than previously thought | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds:

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) has revised its estimates of the size and shape of the UK labour market showing that it has a bigger workforce, with employment up 170,000 compared to previous estimates.

However, the ONS has also highlighted that the number of people economically inactive due to long-term sickness has been revised up from its previous record high of 2.6 million to 2.8 million.

Independent think tank, the Resolution Foundation, explained that ONS’ reweighting of the labour force survey was to reflect the UK population growing faster than previously thought and it confirms that the labour market is bigger but weaker than previous estimates.

Government takes action against ‘fire and rehire’ practices | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds:

A new statutory Code of Practice concerning certain controversial dismissal tactics will, the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) argues, protect workers’ rights whilst respecting business flexibility.

Dismissal and re-engagement, also known as ‘fire and rehire’, refers to when an employer sacks an employee and then offers them a new contract on new, often less favourable, terms.

Business Minister Kevin Hollinrake said: “Our new Code will crack down on employers mistreating employees and sets out how they should behave when changing an employee’s contract.”

It will, he went on, make clear how employers must behave in this area and help to preserve security and opportunity for those in work.

Consensus HR | Your Outsourced HR & Employment Law Dept.

Manual handling at work: guidance on the law | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds:

As an employer, you must protect your workers from the risks of manual handling injuries in the workplace.

You can find help with preventing these sort of risks in your workplace on the HSE manual handling website pages.

There is a range of information and advice for employers, including sections on assessing manual handling and training for workers.

More than 500 businesses fail to pay minimum wage | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds:

More than 500 businesses, including Greggs and Harrods, failed to pay some of their employees the minimum wage, according to a list released by the Department for Business and Trade. The analysis, which covers breaches between 2015 and 2023, shows that recruitment agency Staffline topped the list for failing to pay 36,767 workers correctly, while Estée Lauder failed to pay £894,980 to almost 6,000 workers. The report shows that 524 employers have repaid more than 172,000 workers almost £16m, plus an additional penalty, for breaches in paying the statutory national minimum wage. Kevin Hollinrake, the minister for enterprise, markets and small businesses, said: “Employees deserve to get paid properly for the hard work they put in.” Caroline Harwood, an employer tax partner at BDO, said: “It’s always a bit of a shock to see so many well-known names appearing on HMRC’s list of employers who have been found to be in breach of national minimum wage rules.”

Round-up of all the legal changes in January 2024 | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

Matthew Chilcott Blog, Employment Law, General @sg1, #bedfordshirebusinesses, #hertfordshirebusinesses, #legalchanges, #networkinbeds, #outsourcedhumanresources, bedfordshire, Business, hertfordshire, HR, HR Advice, HR Consultant, HR Support, outsourcedHR, Small Business, SME, SME's, stevenage

2024 is set to be a busy year will plenty of legislative changes taking effect at various points throughout the year, with changes still being announced .

The Government has just announced that it is backtracking on the proposed increase from Spring 2024 to the salary required for family visas, and that the proposed increase to £38,700 will not now take place. Instead, they plan to initially set it at £29,000.

As the New Year fast approaches here is a reminder of what is happening in January 2024:

From 1st January 2024:

Covid holiday carry-over ends –

The emergency rules on annual leave which were implemented in 2020 meant that workers could carry over 4 weeks of leave into the next 2 leave years where it was not reasonably practicable for them to take it because of the effects of Covid. From 1 January 2024, this will be removed, but for any employees who have any “Covid carry over leave” accrued by that date but have not taken it, have until 31 March 2024 to use it.

Remaining rules on holiday carry-over continue –

Nothing actually changing here but as these rights derive from ECJ case law it has had to be added to our legislation to ensure that the status quo is maintained. There will continue, therefore, to be a right of carry-over in the following situations:
- Where a worker was unable to take holiday due to being on maternity leave or other family-friendly leave – can carry over 5.6 weeks to the following leave year.
- Where a worker was unable to take holiday due to sickness – can carry over 4 weeks of leave for 18 months after the end of the leave year in which the leave was accrued.

Legislation will be updated from 1st January 2024 –

To state that for leave years starting on or after 1 April 2024 employers can lawfully pro-rata holiday entitlement for part-year and irregular hours workers, and if they want to do so, can again use rolled-up holiday pay, but only for these types of workers. Remember that whilst the law will be updated in January, employers cannot actually make any changes until their next leave year starting on or after 1 April 2024.

From 16th January 2024, subject to parliamentary approval, the Immigration Health Surcharge is set to increase from £624 to £1,035.

Finally, from 22nd January 2024, if approved by parliament, the civil penalty when an employer is found to have employed foreign workers unlawfully, will increase:

To £45,000 per illegal worker for a first breach.
To £60,000 for repeated breaches.

UK migration advisers call for tighter foreign worker rules | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

Matthew Chilcott Blog, Employment Law, General, Recruitment @sg1, #consensushr, #foreign workers, #hertfordshirebusinesses, #networkinbeds, #outsourcing, bedfordshire, Business, Business Owners, hertfordshire, HR, HR Advice, HR Consultant, HR Consultants, HR Support, outsourcedHR, Recruitment, Small Business, SME, SME's, stevenage

The UK’s Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) on Tuesday recommended abolishing one of the main routes for businesses to hire migrant workers in sectors where there are severe staff shortages, arguing that the current system was liable to drive down wages and leave workers open to exploitation. The so-called shortage occupation list (SOL) allows employers to pay foreigners 20% less than the going rate in jobs where there is deemed to be a shortage of workers. The MAC said scrapping the rules would help to prevent companies undercutting UK domestic worker pay rates and combat the exploitation of migrants. Despite its recommendation to abolish the rules, the MAC proposed adding eight occupations to the 2023 UK-wide list, including care workers, lab technicians, bricklayers, roofers and animal care services.

Our HR comments: – UK migration advisers call for tighter foreign worker rules | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

Matthew P Chilcott, FCIPD, ACEL, Owner of Consensus HR comments: “It still seems to be the case that although we have low unemployment within the UK, certain sectors are still finding it very hard to recruit and as previously stated, my past industry sector, Hospitalities is still having major problems. This article demonstrates though that a current MAC scheme is having a very bad adverse effect on UK domestic workers which surely is not the right answer whilst no exploiting migrants?”

New employment laws: update – 2023 /24 | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

A Consensus HR, we always ensure our clients are kept up to date on new and changes to current Employment Law as they happen and 2023 so far has been a busy year for employment law, with a number of new laws gaining Royal Assent. Many of these will not come into force until 2024 or beyond, however, giving employers plenty of time to become familiar with the new requirements and plan how they will be introduced and implemented into their organisation.

FCA proposes new diversity and misconduct rules | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and Prudential Regulation Authority have set out proposals to boost diversity and inclusion across the financial services industry. The rules would require large banks and insurers to report diversity and inclusion data to regulators and set new targets to address under-representation. In a consultation paper, the bodies say firms would have to develop a diversity and inclusion strategy setting out how they will meet their objectives and goals.

Therapy sessions start for long-term sick | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

Therapists employed by the state will this week begin consultations with the long-term sick after ministers expressed frustration that the NHS is not doing enough to get people back work.

REC survey: UK businesses remain positive about hiring & investment | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

Businesses plan to continue hiring workers and investing, with a poll from the Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC) showing confidence in both areas remained positive in the three months to August.

Managing the risk of working from height | Consensus HR – Herts, Beds

The latest Health & Safety Executive (HSE) bulletin talks about working at heights and how this is the most common kind of workplace fatality. This article provides a fantastic step by step guide for businesses.

Considering the risks associated with work at height and putting in place sensible and proportionate measures to manage them, is an important part of working safely.
