2020 was a whirlwind year, with things changing so frequently since COVID-19, and 2021 has been no different so far…
Many organisations faced HR challenges around keeping staff safe and motivated, using remote work systems to maintain productivity and focusing on business continuity in very challenging trading conditions.
Peninsula’s advice lines were the busiest it’s ever been this past year, and with the extension of the Lockdown, it seems things will remain the same for a while.
The common trend they have found on all calls were that people were struggling to keep up with all the legislative changes.
To help resolve this issue, Peninsula in aoociation with LIBA are regularly holding informational sessions, as you must already know, which are free for Employers to attend.
These sessions take a look at what businesses need to do to protect their business and their staff and breaks-down the latest government guidance/update and answer questions live.
They are only 30 mins long and to-the-point.
Currently they are hosting webinars on the following topics –
