Knowing what to say (and do) when an employee tells you they are pregnant, can be a dilemma. On one hand, you are delighted for them. But on the other, you're thinking about the legal steps you need to take, how much it's going to cost and how you'll cope without them and the hassle of finding their replacement.

Being an entrepreneur and running a successful business is one thing. But being a CEO and managing a team of people is completely different.

Yet, many people get to this situation and don't have the skills needed to lead a team. And that's when things go terribly wrong. 

If you have a team now, but you never set out to have one, it can be difficult. Perhaps you feel like your team don't respect you or don't like you. Or maybe you feel completely out of your depth and lack the confidence or skills to lead your team. 

I've been there!

In my corporate career I went from being a sole contributor to managing a global team of 20 in the space of 18 months. And even though I am an HR professional with strong knowledge of how to lead people, the reality and complexity I faced was completely different. 

✅ Some people were older than me, and didn't like my success. 

✅ Some people were different to me 

✅ Some people were difficult and under-performing. 

But, I invested in a leadership mentor to help me master the techniques I needed and really got to know myself and my team. I transformed my under-performing team into one that got results and I can share my techniques with you, so you can achieve this too. 

And since then I've worked with lots of business owners to help them do the sam

How it works

Loads of small business owners use the services of self-employed contractors or freelancers. They’re a great way to bring specific expertise into your company, without having to recruit a permanent employee.  

You can’t use them forever though – otherwise HMRC could be on your back for IR35 (where they think you have a disguised employee)!

So, when the time comes to part company, make sure you’re protected from any negative repercussions that could crop up in the future. For example, I’ve come across contractors claiming they weren’t told an agreement had ended, leaving the small business owner with an unexpected invoice to settle months later 😱

WHY THIS LETTER IS SUPER IMPORTANT

It’ll better protect you from:

💷 Any future misunderstandings over money owed.

⚠ It serves as a reminder to your contractor or freelancer – of any contract obligations they still may have, even if they’re no longer working for you. For example, a non-compete agreement where you’ve specified they can’t work for one of your competitors. Or, an intellectual property clause, that spells out who owns any assets they may have created for you – like a logo for example.

💯 It’s 100% compliant with English law.

👌 It makes you look MEGA professional.

WHAT YOU’LL GET

✔ After you’ve paid, a link will be emailed to you in a jiffy – so you can download the letter – which comes in Microsoft Word format.

✔ You can top and tail it, so it reflects your own brand identity with your logo.

✔ You can re-use it again and again – as you go on to hire more self-employed contractors or freelancers.

✔ If you’ve any queries after you’ve purchased my letter – I’m totally here for you!

MY TOP TIP

👌 If you’re parting company on great terms – which I’m sure you are – use this letter as a prop to formally wrap things up, and thank your contractor for what they’ve done for you. In my experience, self-employed contractors and freelancers are very well connected – simply because of the nature of their work status. So, this could be an opportunity for them to be an advocate of your brand ❤

As an employer, you’re responsible for preventing bullying and harassment in your workplace. And what’s more, you could end up in an employment tribunal if you don’t take this seriously ⚠

A bullying and harassment policy can help to set super high standards in your business, by making it crystal clear what behaviour you expect from your employees and what they can expect from you.

To save you time, and to protect your business – I’ve pulled together a policy template for you to give to your new or existing employees.

Keep reading to find out more 👇

WHAT YOU’LL GET

In a nutshell, you'll get a top notch bullying & harassment policy template, which makes it super clear to your employees, that you take a zero-tolerance approach to bullying and harassment. And what’s more, it tells them what to do, should they need to make a complaint so you comply with your legal responsibilities.

Here's a bit more info:

✅ After purchase, a link to the template will be emailed to you instantly.

✅ You can easily personalise it, by adding your company logo.

✅ Should a question pop into your mind after purchase, you can contact me at any time.

✅ And if the law changes – as it sometimes does – you’ll get access to an updated version.

WHY YOU SHOULD GET THIS TEMPLATE

👉Most responsible employers like you, will want to do the right thing and create a positive working environment, where people are looked after and feel respected. This policy helps to reinforce that.

👉You can find yourself in hot water legally, if you don’t put the right things in place to prevent and stamp out bullying and harassment in your workplace.

👉In fact, GOV.UK tribunal statistics show that in 2018/19, there were 114 discrimination claims awarded compensation for: race, sex, disability, religion, sexual orientation, and age discrimination. The largest ever UK award for sex discrimination amounted to a whopping £1,762,130 in 2015/16. Oh, and there’s no cap on the fines compensation for discrimination claims.

MY TOP TIP

💡As the boss, always set a super example, by personally clamping down on any anti-discriminatory behaviours in your workplace. Even if it's just 'banter', and people are joining in, you won't know how people feel on the inside. If you tolerate it as the boss, you're essentially saying it's ok.
