When it comes to employment law solutions, the best rule to live by is that prevention is always better and cheaper than when you are acting as a result of something. 

And although the majority of medium to large organisations are likely to either have in-house employment law specialists or a team of generalist HR Professionals, smaller firms are unlikely to have this sort of expert knowledge to hand.

In these circumstances, organisations are advised to contact an external expert who is proficient in the area and is able to advise on the best employment law solutions for you. 

Advice can be sought on both simple, general aspects of employment law, and more intricate solutions to current difficulties or possible future conflicts.  Nevertheless, the best advice a professional can give is to put procedures in place to ensure you know where you stand before you are standing in it.
