New guide to informing and consulting employees

Business Link, the Government website containing practical advice for businesses, has published a  new guide entitled “Inform and consult your employees”. The guide was produced with the DBERR and explains why good communications are important and the practical ways and means for doing so.

Subjects covered in the guide include:

  •      Why good communications are important
  •      Legal requirements for communications

  •      Informing and consulting – ways and means
  •      The art of good communication
