Manager Training Course: Probation, Performance & Procedure

!NEW! Manager Training Course

Probation, Performance & Procedure

The Employment Rights Act 2025 is a “game changer”. It will impact the way managers and people leaders recruit, onboard, review performance, gather evidence, dismiss and workforce plan. Often; however, when legislation updates happen, managers do not understand the level of change and what is expected of them. Let’s change this.

To help and support managers, Emma O’Connor, Partner, and Head of Client Training, is running a specific and tailored interactive training course aimed at managers and people leaders focusing on how managers can effectively manage the probation process, the key of focus and core ERA 2025 they need to know to support their teams and HR leads.

In the 2-hour session, Emma will discuss:

  • Getting recruitment right
  • The importance of onboarding and probation
  • Managing performance during probation– practice, procedure and pitfalls
  • Evidence gathering - why this is important
  • Setting objectives and tips for success
  • What a six-month unfair dismissal qualification period means in practice
  • Other core legal risk areas when it comes to dismissal
  • Next steps – the takeaways
