Where the Experience is Beyond the Academics
The management of staff is one of the most challenging duties placed upon an organization, especially in the ever-increasing complex IR landscape, as issues of diversity, employee rights and employer obligations are now added to the existing list of challenges.
Many managers would be able to recall a troubling situation with an errant employee who appears untouchable and at any sign of disciplinary action is able to seek trade union or other intervention to their benefit. Factors such as this, impact in great measure on the disciplinary function and the role of management in managing staff performance and overall behaviour.
The impact of these actions is seen in the diversion of key financial and human resources from goal achievement towards avoidance schemes and litigation. It is therefore critical that management understand their IR responsibilities and its importance in the discharge of these, that they do not deliberately or negligently fail to consider the impact of failure to adhere to sound IR practices and principles.
Adherence to sound IR practices mandates awareness of the legal framework within which IR operates and the key principles which derive from the law. This also requires awareness of how the industrial court applies the law in respect of what constitutes good IR practices in the practical settings, that is, the workplace. Armed with this knowledge managers will have the ability to apply the lessons learnt to optimise employee performance without infringing on employee rights and mitigating the risk of litigation and prevent financial exposure to the organization.
