INTRODUCTION

HR in Education & Nursery.

We understand that compliance with OFSTED or EYFS can make it difficult to prioritise issues. We support education providers from Early Years and day nurseries to academy groups and trusts. We make it easy for you to deal with HR Headaches without having to let other requirements slip.

We appreciate that safeguarding concerns might mean that you have to act differently than other businesses. We recognise that business requirements and regulatory restraints can impact HR decisions.

WORKING WITH US

Why work with Employment Law Solutions?

“We’ve been working with ELS for the last four years. The main benefit to us as a company in using ELS is the confidence that it’s given us in moving forward with our employment decisions and they really do understand industry sector specifics such as our Ofsted compliance, EYFS, safeguarding, the ratios that we have to work to and they really did factor that into the employment solutions that they offered to us.

We very much consider them now part of our team having them on board has freed us up to focus on other areas of the business and we let them look after our HR issues.”

An employer’s guide to the work Christmas party

When considering the work christmas party it would be easy to fall into a spiral of rulemaking and declaring fun absorbing dictats of course, not to control the fun or quell the festive spirit, but rather to try and prevent any HR headaches throughout the festivities and into the New Year to ensure everyone has a good time.
