| Managing performance - steps to take when an employee under performs | ||||||||||||
Friday 29 June | ||||||||||||
|
There is no legal definition of job performance, but simply, it is the assessment of how an employee performs their duties at work. Essentially, an employer needs to identify the reason or root cause for the performance not being as it should be, as it was, or at the level that the employer wants it to be. The situation can include an employee who is incapable of doing the job, is capable but is not contributing as required to do, is absent for frequent short periods or is signed off for a long time. Colette Hunt looks at some steps to take in this article. | ||||||||||||
| Tribunal case highlights need for procedure in dealing with absence due to ill health | ||||||||||||
Friday 29 June | ||||||||||||
|
The Jersey Employment Tribunal has released a decision relating to how the employment of an employee ended after he suddenly fell ill. It was unclear whether he had been dismissed or not and the employee also wanted to know if he had any legal entitlement owing. The case highlights the need for employers to follow procedures in investigating absence from work due to ill health, so if you have an employee who has been absent for some time and are uncertain what steps should be taken, do take advice, says Colette Hunt in this article. | ||||||||||||
| Jersey Employment Forum seeks views on minimum wage | ||||||||||||
Friday 29 June | ||||||||||||
|
We've been told that the Jersey
Employment Forum is reviewing the minimum wage and trainee rate and
are asking for views.
Their questionnaire is online at
www.gov.je/minimumwagereview and
they are asking for comments by 17 August 2012.
The website also provides more
information about the review, including details of a public meeting
on 1 August.
The Forum is seeking views about
what rate the minimum wage should be set at from 1 April 2013 and
whether a recommendation should also be made for minimum wage rates
to apply from 1 April 2014.
The Forum is also reviewing the
conditions relating to the trainee rate, including the types of
training that permit an employer to pay the trainee rate and the
maximum length of time that the trainee rate should be payable
for.
The views received, combined with
data about the economy, will help the Forum to decide whether any
changes should be recommended to the Social Security
Minister.
