Mock disciplinary hearing - digital event


Overview

Conducting a disciplinary hearing can be a daunting prospect.
The Acas Code of Practice sets out principles for handling disciplinary and grievance situations in the workplace. Employment tribunals are legally required to take the Acas Code of Practice into account when considering relevant cases. So understanding the principles of a discipline hearing is key.

Join us at this interactive event, where you will observe an example disciplinary hearing. You will have the opportunity to share your views on the hearing’s progress and help decide the outcome. We will also help you understand the common mistakes to avoid when conducting a hearing, as well as sharing Acas good practice.
