Employment Law In Bitesize

#JustSaying.  They say that less is more. Res ipsa loquitur... “The thing speaks for itself”. Or, as the hashtag goes on Twitter: “Just Saying”. Could you sum up your career in 140 characters?  That’s what I’ve tried to do over the last two years – posting employment law tips on Twitter in 140 characters or fewer, using the hashtag #EmploymentLawTip. Forget the Latin maxims and legal prose ... just punchy tips on HR and employment law in bite-size chunks.  140 of them, no less!We published the…See More

The Third Side

There are two sides to the employment relationship - employee and employer.  That much is clear.  What about an employment dispute?  When things go wrong in the workplace and it escalates into dispute, there may be a multitude of different positions and principles at play, but generally it will still boil down to those same two sides - employee and employer.Despite the Government’s continued attempts over the years to improve procedures to resolve workplace disputes, conflict is always going to…See More

"Thanks for your comment Mike - this is exactly the kind of scenario I had in mind in my post.  And oftentimes the whole problem with performance issues is that managers put their heads in the sand and ignore it.  It doesn't just…"

The Unholy Trinity of HR

The power of three.  I have been thinking a lot about this with the launch of our new brand and our newly merged firm of Burness Paull & Williamsons LLP (Burness Paull) on 1 December.  Good things come in threes.  There is a certain symmetry to it.  Having three separate offices of equal size and with a focus on quality in each of the three major cities in Scotland certainly gives us a competitive edge. It also got me thinking about…See More

100 Employment Law Tips in 140 Characters

Twitter seemed a logical extension of this strategy.As I became more confident in my use of LinkedIn for business networking, just over a year ago I started noodling around on Twitter. It was clear that little pockets…See More

In Pursuit of the "One-handed Employment Lawyer"

I was asked to speak at the Law Society of Scotland’s In-House Lawyers’ Conference on Friday.  The theme of this year’s event was ‘Risk & Compliance’.  This got me thinking about the role of the employment lawyer in advising employers.  For me, there was a real resonance with the theme of risk management. The modern role of employment lawyer has become much more about assessing and managing risk than when I first started out as an employment lawyer in the 1990s.  At that time, the…See More
