Supporting employers in South Wales and surrounding areas
Introducing Peter Grace, your local Regional Business Director, and the Ellis Whittam team, who have been helping businesses across South Wales and nationwide through a multitude of workforce issues and compliance challenges created by the pandemic – from furlough to absenteeism, refusals to work and, sadly, redundancy.
With the help of our Employment Law Advisers, Peter will be running a series of completely free webinars, as well as giving away free guides, templates and checklists to help you optimise your workforce in 2021.
Sign up to the free webinar below or, if you would like a free consultation with Peter to discuss your specific situation and the support available, leave your details using the form opposite and he will be in touch.

Redundancy is a particularly complex area of employment law, meaning the margin for error is high. How do you turn your plans into a functioning process that doesn’t expose you to future Employment Tribunals?
In this recent live Q&A, our Employment Law Director, James Tamm, condenses everything you need to know from a legal perspective into a helpful 45-minute video for employers.

Client stories
“
Our relationship with WorkNest is more like a supportive partnership. They treat us like peers, and yet provide extraordinary support whenever we need it. Whether it is about the challenges of working through a pandemic or building a new HR strategy, the people at WorkNest have been kind, holding our hand when that was needed (and it was!) and skilled
experts, providing guidance as we required it. We would not have managed through this last period without them, and I look forward to more of this cooperation ahead.”
