The need for comprehensive crisis management
Company directors and senior management have never faced a greater challenge in ensuring that their companies stay compliant. Most companies invest significant time and money in maintaining processes and procedures to keep out of trouble. Yet, even the best organised businesses can face a crisis.
If your organisation is unexpectedly the subject of a ‘dawn raid’, data breach, regulatory, press, political or other investigation or is dealing with a workplace accident, you need experienced crisis management experts to act swiftly and advise you on how to make the best of what is often a difficult and stressful situation. With the demand for transparency from customers, employees and the wider public, and the multiplying effect of social media, it is vital that the legal and communication strategies are coordinated to minimise the reputational impact and manage an effective response strategy.
Chambers and Partners has ranked RPC as one of the leading crisis management practices in the country and have been placed in the top four legal advisers in this area.

Whatever the sector, shape or size, in almost every organisation, people are the glue. And to thrive in an increasingly disrupted world, businesses need to nurture an environment in which every one of its people can perform at their best. This means building an inclusive organisational culture where differences are not just tolerated (or perhaps not even tolerated) but are valued.
RPC's employment, engagement & equality team can help your organisation move the needle towards a more diverse, equitable and inclusive business in accordance with your own strategic priorities. We think you'll find our approach is refreshingly different. Our clients tell us we are unique in the marketplace. Yes, we are lawyers (and proud of it!) and that's important because the law underpinning these issues is both broad and complex. Organisations and individuals are fixed with equalities obligations under domestic legislation, case law, European law and myriad regulatory rules. We have decades of technical legal expertise and experience in successfully navigating this maze for our clients. That's everything from conducting equal pay audits and advising on risk management strategies, dealing with allegations of harassment, advising on pay gap reporting and narrative strategy, litigating discrimination claims and devising policies, processes and interventions to manage inequality risks and much more besides.
