A robust performance management policy is an essential element of running a successful business. Employers need to know how staff are performing and have a plan in place to help them address employee performance issues when they arise.
How Hill Dickinson can help
Hill Dickinson’s team of expert employment lawyers can provide clients with practical legal advice and support on a range of performance management issues and can provide the following services:
- Training managers in effective performance management techniques
- Auditing existing business processes to identify deficiencies
- Drafting performance management policies
- Developing strategies to monitor performance
- The procedural and practical issues of managing performance
- Dismissals and termination

In addition to a raft of internal promotions, Hill
Dickinson LLP’s Liverpool office also acquired a team of four from
Halliwells led by Kerstie Skeaping, adding significant experience
in tribunal hearings, and in trade union matters and industrial
relations. Jeff Middleton now leads the team.
This
team has a strong reputation for advising NHS clients, and it
continues to grow on the corporate side, too. Recent highlights
include representing the Law Society in High Court proceedings
relating to TUPE. Other notable clients include Leeds Teaching
Hospitals NHS Trust, Iceland Foods and the North West Development
Agency.
