There just seems to be so much bad advice and guidance out there, which Zameer and his team are gradually dispelling and correcting.Employers find it difficult to find a balance between treating their employees well and protecting themselves. Also, there are many areas of employment law that are unnecessarily complicated. In many cases, companies can unknowingly violate HR regulations by doing things they believe are right, but which actually contravene certain rules. It's a very grey area, and must be examined on a case-by-case basis. Often it can be easier and cheaper to settle instead of involving solicitors.One of the most difficult elements to face as an employer is that we long to be friendlier to our staff in order to get the best out of them. But it can be hazardous if employees take these friendly gestures as a sign that you are a friend and not a boss.BEST MOMENTS‘It's bringing HR to life for them' ‘We bring the objective thinking' ‘We are holding someone's life in our hands' ‘We've got to tick the human box first' ‘Let your employees know that you're human too' ‘Be friendly, but don't be their friend' VALUABLE RESOURCESKeeping it Real with Khadija PodcastZameer Nazarali LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/zameernazarali?originalSubdomain=ukSimplify ER - http://www.simplifyer.co.uk/ourstory.htmlABOUT THE HOSTKeep it real with Khadija is an interview-based podcast hosted by Khadija Kalifa.
