The HR Mistakes That Quietly Create Legal Risk

Most legal risk in veterinary practices doesn’t come from dramatic events. It comes from small, everyday people management decisions. This session explores how informal conversations, delayed performance management, inconsistent flexibility, poor documentation, and blurred wellbeing boundaries can unintentionally expose practices to claims. Using real-world veterinary examples, Rosie reframes HR not as bureaucracy, but as a protective system that supports people, culture, and clinical outcomes.
