Also, with all this gloomy talk of an expected recession, some employers may be thinking about the possibility of making some redundancies. So Charles Price is here to ensure you follow the correct legal procedures and make sure that all dismissals are fair.

Continuing on the theme of redundancy, our employment law experts advise on what to do with an employee who is asking to be made redundant, in the Ask the expert column this week. Plus, with GCSE results expected this Thursday, Mike Morrison discusses the different types of GCSE formats, to help employers in their recruitment process.
