To comply with employment rules and regulations, employers must have robust policies and procedures in place. If employment legislation is breached, businesses are at risk of claims.
Effective regulatory compliance not only reduces the chance of legal action, but also guarantees that the business-employee relationship has the right legal basis. Should a claim arise, it provides reassurance that no penalty will be levied for breaching employment rules.
