ACAS
ACAS is an independent public body that receives funding from the government. They provide free and impartial advice to employers, employees and their representatives on:
- employment rights (eg. contract requirements, annual leave entitltements, pay)
- best practice and policies (eg. fair disciplinary processes, absence policies, equality and diversity)
- resolving workplace conflict (informally and formally)
When things go wrong, ACAS help to resolve workplace disputes between employers and employees.
