A course in the management of labor relations (Online / Remote)
1Summary
Arab British Fellowship Training Academy offers this hands-on training course in labour relations management, which focuses on defining staff duties and establishing a fair legal and human approach to resolving employee disputes, while keeping staff performance in check through a fair performance-management culture. The course emphasises building an effective incentive system that fosters employee loyalty toward the organization, together with a clear approach to discipline and conflict handling that protects both employees and the institution while balancing employer responsibilities with staff rights and duties.
Employee relations management, as covered in this course, also includes setting out clear methods for measuring staff performance efficiency, providing guidance and counselling to resolve issues between employees, recognising strong performers, supporting those with weaker performance, following up on assigned tasks, and strengthening employee training and the development of their skills and experience.
