Key Customer Benefits

• Reduces concerns about employment law issues and litigation
• Ensures legal documentation is kept up to date
• Saves time and money
• Eliminates need for in-house specialists or solicitors

The Risk of Exposure As with all employers, the onus is on T-Cards Direct to be educated about each new change in the law and its implications, and to ensure that the correct procedures are in place and adhered to. Partner Sarah Richetta has always been aware of the importance of keeping up to date with employment law. “The BPIF (British Printing Industries Federation) provided support in some areas but we felt we definitely needed something better.”

A Comprehensive Solution Sarah says “We looked at how comprehensive the package was, weighed this up against the cost as well as the potential costs of not using the service, and decided to take it on board.” Every time there is a change to the employment law affecting T-Cards Direct, the company automatically receives updated, customised documentation. The package also includes access to a 24-hour legal advice line staffed by fully qualified barristers and solicitors.

The Complete Structure T-Cards Direct has had cause to use the legal advice service on only one occasion. Sarah explains: “When a particular issue arose, we talked it through with the advice line in total confidence and they guided us through it according to our own needs and the set of circumstances involved. Sarah was delighted because “...the person on the end of the phone was a lawyer who had a real handle on the problem and what he provided wasn’t just black and white law but best advice, potential risks . . . the whole picture.” Sarah concludes: “When our contract finished we renewed our subscription without hesitation ~ it’s a very good service.”
