Shergroup Recruitment – A Thought on How to Protect your Business from an Exiting Employee

Over the years we have developed a process for managing our data and systems so if and when an employee leaves we are insulated from the fallout. We hope in your own business you have taken similar steps.

We found the attached article written by Dominic Holmes of Taylor Vintners LLP – see https://bit.ly/2XIQINU – which addresses this tricky issue and on which many business owners need more guidance.

Trying to find the balance between protecting company assets in terms of customers and intellectual property and letting people move on is never going to be perfect.

We encourage members of our community to ensure they have HR advisors who keep contracts of employment under review. We recommend using Practical HR who has been a great support to us in maintaining our HR process.
