Network Recruitment’s Post

First week back after the festive season in the world of hospitality, healthcare and social care recruitment! 🌟 As Friday wraps up, I often find myself reflecting on all the incredible candidates and clients I've interacted with.

It got me thinking about a few key pain points: Lack of Clarity: When events are labeled as optional, shouldn’t employees feel free to skip them without consequences? It feels a bit unfair, don’t you think? Excessive Requirements: Needing a doctor’s note for not attending a party just seems a bit extreme. Are companies overstepping their boundaries? Communication Gaps: Why wasn’t th... Is It Fair to Demand a Doctor's Note for Missing a Holiday Party? Answers:  https://lnkd.in/g-buFEiN Let's Connect! Have you faced similar challenges?
