Employment Team Provide Training To The Construction Industry

Three members of Kitsons' Employment team, Jayme Nicholson (2nd left), Rhodri Davey (2nd right) and Rory Wakeling (far right) recently provided training in London to the Construction Industry, hosted by the Guild of Construction Workers, by performing a mock Employment Tribunal dealing with the regularly contested topic of employment status. Former MP David Mellor QC sat as Judge for the event.

In attendance were 30-40 businesses from the Construction Industry. Participation was encouraged during the cross examination stage and it was great to see those in attendance getting involved in the event and giving the witness (Rory) a very hard time. All in attendance found the event very useful as not only did it familiarise people with the processes of the Tribunal, but it also highlighted a number of vital procedures that must be followed when using sub-contractors during the course of their business.

Please feel free to speak to any member of the Kitsons Employment team if you think your business would benefit from similar training. We are able to tailor the content of a mock tribunal to specific risks that your business may face.
