Whatever you need, whenever you need it
Whether you’re dealing with a disciplinary, grievance or redundancy situation, every employee matter is different. Your documents should reflect the facts and be written by somebody who understands the nuances of Employment Law.
At WorkNest, our document drafting is fully bespoke and done by legally-qualified professionals. Unlike some mass-market providers, we don’t dish out off-the-shelf templates and expect you to fill them in – we’ll do all the hard work for you. However, if you do wish to self-serve, we have a large repository of resources and templates to guide you through any scenario.
Taken as part of our wider, personalised Employment Law and HR support, you can free up valuable management time, reduce legal missteps and nip employee issues in the bud, fast.
