ABSTRACT

If your practice is a 'a sole practitioner' and you are contemplating the employment of staff you should obtain appropriate advice.

If you already have staff but perhaps you are not confident that you have done everything by the book, or if you feel that a problem might be brewing, a good place to mug-up is with these two most helpful websites:

• the Advice, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS): w w w .acas.org.uk • the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI): www.dti.gov.uk.
