🌟 Vista is pleased to contribute to the Institute of Directors (IoD)'s consultation on the new Code of Conduct for Company Directors. 🗨️ Victoria Roberts, Vista Director & Head of Learning said: "A code like this can serve as a 'North Star' for directors, guiding their development as leaders and ensuring they model the same high standards expected of their workforce... ...this framework also provides boards with a valuable tool to hold themselves accountable and align with their organisation's values, supporting environmental, social, and governance goals. #InstituteOfDirectors #CompanyDirectors #LeadershipDevelopment #HR

🤔 Have you had to deal with... 👉 Employees who make persistent, low-level complaints to HR about their manager but refuse to raise a formal grievance? 👉 Employees who raise multiple unfounded grievances? 👉 A competent and experienced manager who is close to breaking point or already off sick? The continuing trend of working from home has made upward bullying of managers a lot easier with tactics like not turning up for online meetings, purposefully missing deadlines, and spreading rumours commonly reported. But managers can be bullies too. So what can HR do to resolve the situation and pre-empt the inevitable game of grievance whack-a-mole? Join us for a coffee break webinar and learn Vista’s tips and tricks to map out a clear pathway for resolving the complex problem of upward bullying. 💡Visit our HR Resource Hub and register for a free membership to view webinars, read expert articles, and download HR policy templates and documents https://bit.ly/4fxhnDd #HR #Webinar #EmployeeRelations

😡 Relationship breakdown is costly for the people involved and damages productivity and profitability. 🙂 Fortunately, broken relationships can be fixed. Here’s a 4-point plan to help your team manage conflict in the workplace effectively: 1️⃣ 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 Equip managers with the skills and expertise to be alert to conflict and unafraid to explore issues as they arise. Conflict that remains unchecked can lead to entrenched positions and damaged relationships that become more difficult to resolve. 2️⃣ 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲 Wherever possible and appropriate, encourage parties to explore differences through the informal space of conflict resolution. Here, the parties create their own solution and agreement. This enables the buy-in and engagement to create a workable and sustainable solution. 3️⃣ 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 Sometimes the parties feel that further communication is impossible, or they hit a wall in exploring the more challenging aspects of their conflict. Facilitated discussions and mediation can be effective in unblocking barriers to resolution. Even formal conflict resolution processes, with the agreement of all key stakeholders, can be adjourned to explore this opportunity. In our experience, these methods are highly effective and enable dialogue to flow toward resolution. 4️⃣ 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗴𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀, 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗹𝗶𝗰𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘂𝗻𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 At Vista, we are passionate about supporting leaders and managers to resolve conflict within the informal space. But sometimes, some cases should move to the formal process automatically. Remember, there are significant legal and risk-based considerations in certain areas of conflict, and this should always be a factor in your decision-making process. 👉 The team at Vista includes accredited, trained mediators who can help teams move from dysfunctional to high-performing. Get in touch for an informal chat about your conflict resolution challenges and how Vista can help, or DM one of our trained mediators, Tracey Turner (Orton), or Maeve Vickery #HR #Mediation #EmployeeRelations https://ow.ly/nTAA50T7E2I

📅 On 26th October 2024, employers will be obliged to take ‘reasonable steps’ to protect workers from harassment of a sexual nature (‘sexual harassment’). 📝 Draft guidance from the Equality & Human Rights Commission (‘EHRC’) illustrates the new preventative duty to anticipate scenarios that may give rise to sexual harassment and take reasonable pro-active steps to address them (i.e. risk assess & act). This extends to preventing sexual harassment of workers by third parties. 🔍 Here are our tips for employers to identify the risks in their organisations and how to mitigate them: https://lnkd.in/eM79dS9r #SexualHarassment #NewLegislation #RiskAssessment

Recent Case Law has highlighted the importance of early consultation during a redundancy process. Two cases in particular are: 1️⃣ Joseph de Bank Haycocks v ADP RPO UK Limited The Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) ruled that the Claimant’s dismissal was unfair due to insufficient consultation at the early stages of redundancy. Notably, the EAT emphasized that an appeal cannot correct a lack of consultation during the formative stages. 2️⃣ Valimulla v Al-Khair Foundation In this case, the EAT overturned a Tribunal's decision, finding the Claimant’s dismissal procedurally unfair. The Claimant, placed in a pool of one despite others holding the same position, had not been consulted on the pool used in the redundancy process. The EAT stressed that consultation must occur when it can still influence the outcome.
