Employer

Much (too much?) is expected of an employer when the employer wants to dismiss an employee or deal with a labour dispute in the proper way. What is good employment practice? How do I put this into practice? How can I keep the dismissal costs to a minimum? What are the risks? Where is the balance between the business interests and the employee’s interests? How do I treat the people I dismiss? External advice: legal counsel, unilateral respresentative or mediator?
