OBESITY IN THE WORKPLACE CHALLENGES FACING ALL ORGANISATIONS
In our extensive experience both private and public sector organisations face the following capability, disability and discrimination issues related to obesity;
- Inadequate disability and capability risk assessments
- Inadequate disability discrimination awareness training for staff
- diverse discrimination publicity
- Staff failing to identify, record and report discrimination concerns or events
- Not taking discrimination issues seriously and cutting corners to save money
- Using policies and procedures downloaded from the internet or copied elsewhere, that do not reflect what the staff or business are actually doing
- Not taking capability, disability and related health and safety seriously which increases risk of substantial fines and regulator interventions and suspensions
- Not having suitable HR practices in place that demonstrate procedural and substantive fairness, which increases risk of staff conflict, poor retention and tribunal claims.
- Hiring advisors who have little or no experience of the business sector your business is in
- Reluctance to pay for proper expert advice and support.
