Shropshire businesses to learn about HR at free county event next month.

Lord Sugar might get away with using the catchphrase 'You're Fired' but Shropshire businesses will learn there's more to HR than just hiring and firing at an event in Shrewsbury next month.

Justine Vaughan, director and founder of the firm, will attend Carafair 2015 at Shrewsbury Town Football Club’s stadium on June 3 to talk to businesses about ‘The Employee Journey – Challenges and Considerations for the Employer’.

She said: “The purpose of this session is to help reassure managers and business owners when managing the journey of the employee, from the initial stages of recruiting a new team member through to managing sickness absence and employee performance to name a few.

“During our briefing, we will also look to highlight the specific areas of employment legislation that employers should consider when managing people in the workplace.”

Hosted by buying consortium Caradoc Medical Services Carafair 2015 will be held from 1.30pm to 5.30pm with the presentation from Triangle HR taking place at 4.30pm.

“They will join other organisations attending including GP Practices, therapists, dentists, vets and care home representatives from across the county. It is a great opportunity to receive HR advice, health and safety training, information about digital marketing and much more.
