To Pay or Not To Pay – The Hidden Cost of Kindness:

Employees on long term sick leave can put employers in a difficult position. Most would like to support their staff beyond the statutory minimum but this could end up being a costly gesture. The situation becomes more problematic if employees are off due to injuries sustained at work. Clare Whittaker and Christina Mclean of Quality Solicitors Gordon Lutton offer some legal solutions to this potential minefield.

Westfield Health - Why does health & wellbeing in the workplace matter?
