Why your organisation should review the Working Time Regulations 1998
Organisations need to think long and hard how they apply the Working Time Regulations 1998 in the workplace. There is a direct correlation between levels of sickness absence, stress, mental health sick leave, poor performance, accidents and staff retention.
The Working Time Regulations sets out how long staff can work without breaks, maximum working hours, rest periods and holiday entitlement. Employers that apply the regulations to ensure staff have adequate breaks, also have a workforce with improved staff retention, improved performance, reduced absence and sickness levels which improve profits.
Failure to observe statutory requirements and demonstrate procedural and substantive fairness, could result in the employer being prosecuted at an employment tribunal.
