Employee wellbeing post-pandemic

Épisode 12

mardi 13 juillet 2021 • Durée 38:57

Employee wellbeing has risen up the corporate agenda during the pandemic. However, this is set to become an even bigger issue in the coming months, as HR and legal teams navigate the impact of hybrid working, the right to work flexibly, the end of furlough, long Covid and more.

How can employers address the stigma around mental health and wellbeing? What does proportionate support look like? And what new risks and challenges do they face?

In this episode, we discuss:

The right to disconnect – what is it, how does it work, and could it work in the UK? With insights from Deirdre Lynch, partner at ByrneWallace LLP in the Republic of Ireland.
Gender equality – with more women planning to work from home after the pandemic than men, is “proximity bias” and backwards progress on gender equality in the workplace inevitable?
Remote line management – how can employers make sure they’re spotting the signs and giving the right support to line managers and employees working remotely?
Common themes in employment tribunal claims – including the growth of psychiatric injury claims, and the importance of early intervention and being able to show that you’ve taken proactive steps to support employees with their mental health and wellbeing.

We also explain how TLT is using the Mindful Business Charter to reduce unnecessary stress in the workplace and show respect for colleagues’ wellbeing.

The impact of workplace technology on employees

Épisode 11

jeudi 15 avril 2021 • Durée 37:11

Should HR be more involved in the design and rollout of workplace technology?

Will modern technology force us to replace roles (performed by people) with functions (performed by people, technology, robots and algorithms)?

At what point do employees start to resent technology impinging on their jobs? When it can do 10%, 20% or 30% of their role faster and better than they can?

These are just some of the questions we explore in this episode on workplace technology and its impact on employees. Jonathan Rennie and Sarah Maddock in our employment team are joined by Emma Erskine-Fox from our data privacy and cybersecurity team.

We dig into this complex topic and highlight the issues HR and legal teams need to be aware of, and share our thoughts, cases and practical tips.

Our news section covers a rare case where the tribunal gave some useful advice and a stark warning against allowing your equalities training to go “stale”.

Our listener’s question asks about dismissal and reengagement or “firing and rehiring”, which has become increasingly popular during the pandemic. Read our short guide to this practice.

Note: since we recorded this episode, the court in the Netherlands has ordered Uber to reinstate the five British drivers who were struck off by robot technology.

Working parents

Épisode 10

vendredi 8 janvier 2021 • Durée 37:38

The pandemic has required many people to balance work with heightened childcaring responsibilities.

For employers, this means considering the needs of working parents like never before – flexing policies, considering flexible working arrangements and other solutions and supporting people with their mental health and wellbeing.

The challenges are many and varied, from changing working arrangements to managing performance issues.

At the same time, the law recognises the need to be pragmatic and protect the interests of the business.

This is a big topic, but in this episode, we seek to answer some of the burning questions, including:

What’s a socially and politically acceptable way of managing working parents during the pandemic and moving forward?
How far must employers go to identify those who are struggling and need more support?
What can we learn from the historic uptake of initiatives like shared parental leave, and should childcaring be a protected characteristic under the Equality Act?
How has the gender balance in childcaring during the pandemic affected employees and the risk of a claim for direct or indirect sex discrimination?
Is the UK’s legal framework for family friendly policies keeping pace with societal trends?

The pre-pandemic issues surrounding working parents have not gone away, and are still very much on the agenda. We consider what changes we might see in the law moving forward.

In our news section, we cover:

New research from TLT showing an increase in employees using interim relief applications. These can be challenging and costly for employers to deal with, and many HR teams will never have seen one before.
A recent reminder of the need to be flexible to help parents with childcare commitments – particularly where a flexible contract has already been agreed.

Employee monitoring and using personal data

Épisode 9

vendredi 27 novembre 2020 • Durée 38:10

Employee monitoring isn’t just about using software to check that people are working hard enough. It can be digital, manual, well intended or even a regulatory requirement.

But whether you’re monitoring devices, collecting data to make employment decisions or using CCTV (or even microchips), there’s a whole host of data protection and employment risks to consider.

In this episode, we discuss:

The growth of employee monitoring and why employers might use it
The GDPR principles of transparency, necessity and proportionality
Using employee records for positive discrimination
The £32.1m fine against H&M for “excessive” monitoring
The role of data protection impact assessments
Who’s responsible for CCTV and employee monitoring in shared workspaces

Our news section covers:

Two legal challenges against Uber regarding automated decisions about employees

The ICO’s final guidance on data subject access requests, including when you can “stop the clock” and what constitutes a manifestly unfounded or excessive request

We also answer your questions about whether an employee can withdraw an access request and how employers should be preparing for the end of the Brexit transition period.

Unconscious bias

Épisode 8

mardi 29 septembre 2020 • Durée 38:23

Unconscious bias (UB) is a growing legal issue for employers. It’s widely regarded as a barrier to equality, diversity and inclusion, and employment tribunals are looking more closely at motivation and bias in discrimination and harassment cases.

While it’s been talked about for a number of years, many employers still aren’t doing enough to reduce the risk of UB infiltrating people’s decisions about candidates and colleagues.

In this episode, we discuss:

How does UB present itself as a legal issue?
Ways of reducing the risk, including training, recruitment models and corporate culture
What the employment tribunal looks for
Proving UB and a direct causal link
Discrimination and reasonable adjustments case law

In our news section, we cover:

Facial recognition technology and a case showing just how far organisations must go to satisfy themselves that there isn’t a risk of bias
The breakdown of working relationships between employees, and a surprising decision that a dismissal was fair, even though there was no dismissal process
Employment status, including a finding of “false self-employment” – a stark warning ahead of possible job losses as a result of the pandemic
The latest predictions about the Supreme Court’s pending decision in the Uber employment status case, due later this year

We also share our views on the government’s long-term “back to work” plan, including refusal to return to work, unfair dismissal, flexible working requests and indirect sex discrimination.
