There
has been much discussion this week about the controversial proposals for
compensated no-fault dismissals, where an employee could be sacked with a
payment of a set amount of compensation, otherwise a yet to be defined ‘pay
off’.
Smaller
businesses are driving the economy forward. SMEs and micro businesses will lose
out on talent because they cannot compete on salary and benefits packages.
So
if statutory employee rights are going to be reduced or removed within these
businesses, why would employees want to work for them?

campaign to protect employee rights which will in turn protect smaller

SMEs
are able to offer more flexible working, and close performance management so
both employee and employer get the best out of each other. However instilling
fear into employees will not motivate them.
