Employment Law in Ireland - 2 Critical Issues For Employers
For small business and entrepreneurs in Ireland, it is critical that they are aware of the law covering termination of employment and safety in the workplace for employees.Termination of employment covers such areas as redundancy, dismissal, unfair dismissal and the procedures that must be employed by the employer.
There are big changes on the way for work permits also. But 2 of the most important issues that employers must be aware of when doing business in Ireland are:
1) Safety at Work and 2) Termination of Employment.
1) Safety at work
There are equally onerous obligations when it comes to providing safety at work for his/her employees.
The law surrounding safety at work in particular has given very strong powers to health and safety inspectors to carry out inspections in the workplace...and initiate prosecutions if they choose to do so.
Which can result in criminal penalties.
The consequences of a criminal record for any small business owner should not need to be spelled out. And the provision of safety at work is a moral as well as legal obligation.
2) Termination of employment
In the Ireland of 2009 termination of employment as a result of the downturn and the need to seek redundancies is a feature of many workplaces.
But an understanding of how to proceed with redundancy, legally, is critical.
Because the penalties that can be imposed for unfair dismissal and 'fake' redundancy can be very costly. It does not have to happen if you have a basic understanding of how to terminate employment legally.
There are many other occasions when an employer will need to terminate the employment of an employee. Not to follow the correct procedure will prove to be a costly and needless expense for your small business.
It is important for both employer and employee to recognise their responsibilities and an article like this can only skim the surface of a huge body of legislation designed to protect the rights of both parties.
