Resumen del Editor

Employing Care Staff in Your Home by Cecily Lalloo is for people who have unwittingly found themselves becoming employers. Many people find themselves employing caregivers because a loved one is disabled and they need care. Care may be for a few hours a day or on a 24/7 basis for people with multiple complex disabilities. This book takes families through the world of hiring and managing caregivers throughout the employment lifecycle.

The chapters cover recruitment and selection, the employment relationship, the onboarding process, maintaining the employment relationship, time off work, dealing with workplace problems, leaving, keeping records and other useful information. Where people are employed, whether in your own home or in a business, whether family and friends, or professionals, the same employment legislation applies.

Employing Care Staff in Your Home is an easy-to-use guide of things to know and do. The aim of the book is to provide busy people who employ caregivers in their home a quick and easy resource. The author, Cecily Lalloo, shares her knowledge of many years as an HR professional dealing with all types of employee relations issues in a home environment. She has advised her clients on TUPE, long term sickness and other absences, resolving conflicts, disciplinaries and grievances, workplace exits including settlement agreements, produced documentation including contracts, handbooks, policies, written instructions and all employment related correspondence. She has successfully recruited for her clients in a very difficult marketplace, many employees have been retained over a period of time.

She shares her knowledge so that costs attributed to employee relations issues do not impact unnecessarily on care funds and so that a potential claim to an employment tribunal is low risk. This book does not replace legal advice and employment experts should be consulted for legal assistance.
