This is one of the most difficult and important work relationships. It can work wonderfully if everyone knows what the expectations are and respect them. Or it can be an awful disaster and end some of the most beautiful relationships. Something that is not discussed in the podcast – is the fundamental expectation that the employment relationship may end at some time. How...

YOUR HOME. THEIR WORKPLACE.
Often, as a result of a life changing event, many people unwittingly become employers of care staff in their homes. A loved one had an accident or incident that results in a brain injury or trauma, spinal injury or multiple complex disabilities that changes their life - as well as all those around them; their families, their friends, even their work colleagues. Caregivers, support workers, rehabilitation assistants are employed to provide complex care for them, sometimes on a 24/7 basis.

I have worked with Marc for many years and he has advised me on employment matters. Marc’s contact details are below in these show notes.
I asked Marc what the one bit of advice would be that he’d offer people who employ staff in their homes so that they don’t get on the wrong side of the law. He said “Oh, well, that’s easy. They have to have a written contract … to misquote a famous quote: a verbal contract is not worth the paper it’s written on, and that’s unfortunately how a lot of disputes arise because it’s all evdenced by he-said-she-said. Once you’ve got something in writing, it governs the relationship between the parties.”
Marc talks about a horrendous example of a relationship breakdown that can happen when family and friends are employed, and how best to manage such situations. We also talk about holidays, breaks, self-employment and what claims might arise if an employment contract is not provided!
