Why these Assessments exist

Employee relations risks rarely appear suddenly. They build quietly - through governance gaps, unclear consultation obligations, or change initiatives that move faster than ER visibility.

These assessments are designed to provide early, structured insight so leaders can identify risk before it becomes delay or dispute, make informed decisions with confidence, and avoid unnecessary escalation later in the process.

Each assessment is fixed scope, confidential, and designed to stand alone.

We offer two complementary ER Risk & Readiness Assessments, depending on whether you are looking for an organisation-wide view or support for a specific change.

ER Landscape Report

A structured overview of your organisation’s employee relations landscape, highlighting areas of exposure, fragility, and maturity across countries or regions.

This assessment helps answer questions such as:

  • Where are our primary ER risks today?

  • Are there jurisdictions that require greater attention?

  • How prepared are we for future organisational change?

You will receive:

  • Executive-level ER health overview

  • Country-by-country risk heatmap

  • Identification of structural and governance risks

  • Clear priority recommendations for the next 6–12 months

  • Facilitated review of assessment findings and risk indicators

Change-Specific ER Risk Assessment

Assess employee relations risk for a particular change.

A focused assessment of consultation, co-determination, and employee relations risks associated with a specific organisational change.

This assessment is commonly used when planning:

  • Restructuring or workforce reductions

  • AI or automation initiatives

  • Policy or process changes

  • Reorganisations or integrations

You will receive:

Change-specific ER risk analysis

  1. Country-level consultation and timing exposure

  2. Identification of red flags and sensitivities

  3. Practical mitigation and sequencing recommendations

  4. Facilitated review of assessment findings and risk indicators
