Hi there In this week’s episode, we bring you an update from podcast episode 196 of this podcast, about the progress of the new labour government in bringing online, new employment rights for a four-day work week.

We’ll put a link to that episode in the show notes, if you want to go back and have a re-listen.

If you need help with queries about rest breaks, you can download our Employment Rights Online checklist of 15 smart actions that you can use to help you challenge unfair and illegal treatment at work.

| #237: If Your Boss Is Turning You Into a Workaholic, 'The Right to Switch Off' May Be Just What You Need to Protect Your Private Life! Here's What the Government Are Discussing! | 05 Sep 2024 | 00:14:08 | |
Hi there This week we look at concerns if your boss or your company always expect you to be logged on or at work, even after you have finished your shift or your hours for the day. We touch on the increasing levels of ‘workaholicism’, this treatment is creating, and plans by the UK government to bring in legislation or regulations to counter the damaging effects of not switching off from your job. It's our view, that the more you are able to acquaint yourself with your employment rights in this area, the more your rights will act as an early warning system, which you can use to spot bad treatment or illegal treatment that you may be suffering at work. If you need help to formulate your complaint you can download a copy of our ‘Complaints Checklist’ here.

Hi There This week, as we count down to the General Election on 4th July 2024 and the suggested Labour government that is said to be coming your way - we thought we would look at what’s in the Labour Party Election Manifesto for employees. Remember, we looked at the Conservative Manifesto in last week’s episode. It's our view, that the more you are able to acquaint yourself with your employment rights in this area, the more your rights will act as an early warning system, which you can use to spot bad treatment or illegal treatment that you may be suffering at work. If you need help to formulate your complaint you can download a copy of our ‘Complaints Checklist’ here. If you need help with race discrimination queries or help to organise your thoughts into a complaint, you can download our Employment Rights Online checklist of 15 smart actions that you can use to help you challenge unfair and illegal treatment at work.

Calculated … YES… and what’s more, when breadcrumbing is used in this way - it’s meant to be - to deliver maximum damage to your wellbeing at work. We’ll be looking at how you evidence bullying in a complaint so that it’s more difficult for your employer to ignore what is happening to you. We’ll be looking at this in our bullying course, which launches at the end of October 2022.

| #134: How You Know You’re Being Bullied at Work By a Narcissist and What to Do About This! | 25 Aug 2022 | 00:15:05 | |
Hi there We hope you are having a problem free employment rights week. Wouldn’t it be great, to just get a break …from bad behaviour at work! This week, as we move nearer towards the launch of our Bullying Course, which is part of our Bullying Surgery services, we take a look at narcissistic workplace bullying, which is perhaps one of the most difficult forms of bullying you will ever have to deal with at work. Why? Because a narcissistic workplace bully will break all the universal moral codes to get to you and bully the life out of you, just for the hell of it. Our take aways for this week’s episode are, that there are different types of bullies in the workplace and when you are dealing with a narcissistic workplace bully you are dealing with a unique set of challenges because of the persistent and deliberate attempts by this type of bully, to degrade you into submitting to their self-importance. We will be dealing with all this in our forthcoming Bullying Course which launches in October 2022. If you would like more information… you can contact Employment Rights Online at employmentrightsonline@gmail.com. You can find all your support links at the bottom of these show notes and …you can help us by sharing our podcast information with your friends and colleagues and by leaving us a review on iTunes.

| #132: Can You Be Disciplined or Sacked Because Others Made Offensive Comments to Your Angry Social Media Post About Your Boss. Here’s What You Need to Know! | 11 Aug 2022 | 00:17:22 | |
Hi there We hope you are able to use your employment rights to support your right to fair treatment at work. This is your legal entitlement. In last week’s episode, we looked at what could happen if you use your private social media accounts to make negative comments not just about work, but negative comments that could affect the reputation of the company you work for. We also look at whether the company has a right to sack you for this, even though your comments are made from your own private social media account. This week we answer the question posed to us last week regarding whether you can be disciplined or sacked for complaining about workplace issues on social media – with a twist! The twist is whether you can then be held responsible and disciplined or sacked, for any negative comments in support of your posts, which come from friends and others on your feed, which your company may see as an act of misconduct. You can find all our support links at the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this week’s episode, which includes our Free checklist on the top 15 things you can do, if you need to bring a complaint at work. We also include some template letters you can use to write your complaint. Remember, you can help us by sharing our podcast information with your friends and colleagues and by leaving us a review on ITunes. Until next week… have a great employment rights week Bye for now.

| #129: The Top 5 Reasonable Adjustment Requests You Can Make Before Your Interview If You Are Disabled, And Why It’s Your Legal Right to Make These Requests! | 21 Jul 2022 | 00:13:21 | |
Hi there We hope you’re having a problem free employment rights week. Wouldn’t it be great, to just get a break! This week, we just want to touch on something that came out of one of our previous episodes, which has to do with reasonable adjustments at interview. It seems that many of our listeners were not aware that you can expect a prospective employer to make reasonable adjustments for you, to enable you to attend an interview with them and compete on an equitable footing with other candidates who don’t need any reasonable adjustments for their interviews. And also, that you can require those reasonable adjustments to be made by the employer by law - and the law we are referring to here, is the Equalities Act 2010. In this episode we take you through the top 5 reasonable adjustments which you could ask for, to support you to complete on an equitable footing at your interview and during your interview. You can find all our support links at the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this week’s episode, which includes our Free checklist on the top 15 things you can do, if you need to bring a complaint at work. We also include some template letters you can use to write your complaint. Remember, you can help us by sharing our podcast information with your friends and colleagues and by leaving us a review on ITunes. Until next week… have a great employment rights week Bye for now.

| #128: Unfairly Sacked Just Before Your two Years' Service is Reached? There's an Employment Right forThat! | 14 Jul 2022 | 00:12:35 | |
Hi there We hope you’re having a productive employment rights week. This week we take a look at the thorny issue of employers dismissing you just before your two year length of service is due to set in. Many employees face this situation and believe employers do this, as a way to remove your right to claim unfair dismissal. This week we take a deep dive into the issue of length of service and the right to claim unfair dismissal, using the example of a query brought to us by a listener. You can find all our support links at the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this week’s episode, which includes our Free checklist on the top 15 things you can do, if you need to bring a complaint at work.

From the 1st of July 2022, major changes are coming online that change who can authorise you to be off sick from work and who can then say you are fit for work. We also take you through the four new areas of returning you to work, that your employer should take into consideration, when you are returning to work after being off on sick leave.

Just hit any of the links and you will be taken straight to our help pages. This week, following on from our episodes on ‘Suspensions’ we now take a look at your right to be accompanied, which follows on from the drama of being suspended. Being accompanied, is the right you have to bring someone with you, to a formal meeting like a suspension meeting, where formal decisions are going to be made about you or complaints you have made about someone else. Our take aways for this week are – that, you have a legal right to be accompanied at any meeting where decisions will be taken about conduct or performance, and after making a reasonable request to be accompanied your employer must - not may - but must allow you to be accompanied. In next week’s episode, we’ll look at how your chosen person to accompany you can help you in your formal meeting. Until next week Have a great employment rights week Bye for now

| #123: Returning to Work After Suspension? Here’s How to Avoid Them Suspending You Again! | 09 Jun 2022 | 00:14:38 | |
Hi There Remember to use your employment rights to protect your right to work in peace. You are entitled to do this, even when things have gone wrong at work. This week, we are into the final part of our mini-series on suspensions, where we take a look at what you need to be aware of, when you are returned to work after a suspension. This return to work period can be a bit tricky because you almost feel like you are under a microscope. So, we take you through six actions you can take, to reduce opportunities for problems to occur. If we can reduce back to work frictions, this will give you the time, to settle and work towards things getting back to normal. Our take aways for this week are, that if you are returned to work after a suspension, you need to be alert to the next steps you may have to take irrespective of whether you are found innocent of allegations made against you or the allegations against you have been proven. The key is to know what is expected of you. As usual, you that you can find all our support links at the bottom of these show notes where you’re listening to this podcast episode and remember to like… comment…subscribe and let others know about the podcast.

| #122: You’ve Been Suspended From Work and You Think It’s Unfair. Here’s How To Find Your Evidence of Unfairness! | 02 Jun 2022 | 00:14:24 | |
Hi there We hope you are having a positive employment rights week. This week, we’re into part two of three of our miniseries looking at suspensions and in particular, what to look for as evidence that your suspension might be unfair. In this episode, we’ll look at seven key actions your employer should take to evidence fairness of your suspension – actions that you need to be aware of if you want to check that your suspension has been handled fairly. The take away for this week, is that, for your employer to maintain that duty of mutual trust and confidence, under no circumstances should you be suspended as punishment during the course of an investigation. Neither should your suspension be allowed to prejudice the investigation into your alleged misconduct, or influence the person who will be dealing with your disciplinary, or influence the way in which that person will deal with your disciplinary. At all times, your suspension should imply no fault or guilt about you. Remember, if you like what we are doing, it would really help us if you to tell other people, about this podcast so we can help more people.

| #120: Is Your Company Demanding You Stick to a Workplace Dress Code? Here's What Your Employment Rights Say You Can Do About This! | 19 May 2022 | 00:11:57 | |
Hi there We hope you’re employment rights week hasn’t been too stressful. Remember, you can use your employment rights to get that stressing colleague to back off. Firstly, it would really help us for you to tell other people, about this podcast so we can help more people. You can find all our contact and support links at the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this podcast episode. Just scroll down for links to share the podcast with your family friends and colleagues and if you have an iTunes or now called an Apple Music account… please leave us a review if you like what we are doing. This week we’re looking at how dress codes can be used to demand you wear certain clothing at work and how your employment rights can help you to challenge this. We look at the differences for you, between a legal dress code requirement or a workplace dress code policy. And lastly, we take a look at what action you can take, if you feel you are unfairly affected by a dress code policy. Our take aways from this week’s episode are that you are not frightened off from looking at any workplace dress code, if it makes you feel uncomfortable. Although your employer has a legal duty to provide you with protective clothing, which you must wear to do your job - beyond this your employer can have a policy about what you wear, but that policy cannot unnecessarily impose on your legal protected characteristic rights.

| #119: Please Help! Is My Boss Just Tough Or Is My Boss A Bully! | 12 May 2022 | 00:12:16 | |
This week we tackle a question that came out of our Bullying Surgery, which took place in March 2022. The question related to the behaviour of bosses and managers at work and the question that was asked, was ‘How can you tell if your boss is just a tough boss, or if your boss is a bully’. In this episode, we take you through some key difference between the two different types of bosses, to give you pointers to look for. What we hope you take away from this week’s episode, is to believe in yourself and your experiences and to trust your gut. If it feels like things have moved away from tough to bullying, use this episode to review the differences and then make the decision to speak to someone about what is happening to you - so you get your support pointing in the right direction - at the earliest opportunity! Remember, you that you can find all our support links at the bottom of these show notes where you’re listening to this podcast episode. Until next week Have a great employment rights week Bye for now

| #117: Am I Being Expected to Work Longer Hours at Home? Do I Have A Right to Disconnect From the System? What Are My Rights Here! | 28 Apr 2022 | 00:14:50 | |
Hi there In this week’s episode, we’re talking about the new normal of employers expecting you to plug into online office meeting systems like Teams… Zoom… Asana… and Go Webinar… as early as possible… and then logging off as late as possible… as a way of proving that you are working hard enough or long enough to be worthy of the salaries you are being paid. And under these testing circumstances, workers are asking whether they have an employment right to disconnect from the services at the end of their contracted working hours. What we hope you get from this week’s episode, is some recognition that felling unable to disconnect or being required to remain connected to your office online work system outside of your working hours, is a thing, and that’s its wrong - and also, that there are things you can do about these types of bad practices. Also, you that you can find all our support links at the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this podcast episode. Until next week Have a great employment rights week Bye for now

HI Everyone In this week’s episode, we’re looking at the issue of employers who pay your wages or salary late.

Hi there We hope you are able to use your employment rights to support your right to fair treatment at work. This is your legal entitlement. Last week, we looked at your employment rights as a disabled person and we looked at your employer’s responsibilities to make reasonable adjustments for you at work, to support you to remain in your job; and, to support you to work effectively in your job. In this week’s episode, we look at your employment rights if your employer refuses to either accept your experiences of depression as a debilitating illness and then refuses to make reasonable adjustments for you. We’re going to talk about what you can do and the actions you can take, if your employer refuses to support you. YOUR FREE DOWNLOADS Accompanying this week’s podcast, is a number of downloads that we have created for you, to help you approach your employer to request meetings to talk about your request for reasonable adjustments. The downloads available are: · A template of a letter you can send to your employer to request a follow up meeting to discuss your request for reasonable adjustments; · A template of a grievance letter you can send to your employer to raise a complaint; and, · A template letter for you to appeal against the findings of your employer’s investigation into your grievance. You will also see links for helpful services where you can get advice and support with any action you may have to take, to support your request for reasonable adjustments at work.

| #224: It’s 2024 And We’re Just Finding Out That If You Were Made Redundant From Virgin Airlines After Covid, You May Have Lost Your Job Because of Your Age. Here’s What Happened! | 06 Jun 2024 | 00:13:36 | |
Hi there In this week’s episode we look at a hugely important situation which is brewing for the month of June 2024, when staff at Virgin Atlantic who believe they were unfairly targeted for redundancy due to their age and experience – will begin having their cases heard in Employment Tribunals. The importance of these cases cannot be understated because the cases lead the way for other cases to follow, which focus on covid related decisions taken by employers, that affected the employment status and righs of thousands of employees. It's our view, that the more you are able to acquaint yourself with your employment rights the more your rights will act as an early warning system, to spot bad treatment that you may be suffering at work. If you need help to formulate your complaint you can download a copy of our ‘Complaints Checklist’ here. If you need help with redundancy-related queries you can download our Employment Rights Online checklist of 15 smart actions that you can use to help you challenge unfair and illegal treatment at work. We also include templates for grievance letters. You’ll find the link to that download in the show notes below.
