I aim to share short, informative posts on current developments and ideas in the HR space that are of practical use to employers and employees alike!
I want to make sure you always know what is happening in the world of human resources. Here I provide you with latest news and updates from Essential HR, as I identify them. This includes my own analyses, summaries of key legal developments month by month, and useful tips for your organisation.
