**Your Employment Settlement Service (“YESS”)** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 30 June 2023** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 June 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

YESS operates for the public benefit, to promote the resolution of conflict and disputes between employers and employees, without recourse to litigation. The objective is to relieve the social and economic costs of litigation and equivalent procedures including but not limited to: 

1. providing and supporting the provision of advice services to employees; 

2. providing mediation services; 

3. facilitating the early resolution of disputes including where appropriate, effecting a reconciliation between employers and employees; 

4. undertaking research to create models for dispute resolution between employers and employees, and to improve understanding of the causes of conflict and dispute in the workplace, and disseminating the results of such research to the public; and 

5. providing training to employers and producing publications on the promotion of conflict avoidance, early dispute resolution and employment law. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Advice services** 

YESS gives a free advice telephone call to all enquirers, regardless of income. Calls average 20-30 minutes and in many cases will resolve the caller’s issue. 

Enquirers in need of further advice may be offered an affordable fee arrangement, or pro bono services, depending on their personal situation. 

In this financial period, 1415 free advice calls were delivered. 773 enquirers went on to become clients, benefiting from a variety of affordable fee arrangements and where appropriate, pro bono services. 

## **Joint project with Maternity Action 2020 - 2023** 

YESS worked in partnership with Maternity Action Between August 2020 and July 2023 to deliver an integrated end-to-end advice and casework support service for pregnant women and new mothers facing problems at work. The service was free at the point of use and funded by the National Community Lottery. 

The project’s stated aim was to help and empower women to successfully resolve their disputes. Where possible, clients would correspond and communicate with their employer themselves. YESS solicitors supported and encouraged this, although would step in if the client was unable to make progress, by dealing directly with the employer. 

Cases ranged from preparing flexible work requests and appeals, challenging redundancies, raising health and safety concerns, pregnancy and maternity discrimination and dismissals and advising on settlement agreements. 

This financial period covered the final year of this project. YESS solicitors supported 32 women under this project over the financial year. 

YESS supported 165 women over the life of the project.

**Your Employment Settlement Service (“YESS”)** 

**Report of the Trustees for the year ended 30 June 2023** 

## **London Employment Tribunal Settlement Support Scheme (LETSSS) 2021 - 2026** 

The London Employment Tribunal Settlement Support Scheme provides support to unrepresented claimants of limited financial means to resolve their employment tribunal cases without proceeding to a final hearing. The scheme was funded by Trust for London between November 2021 and October 2023. 

LETSSS is only available where employment tribunal proceedings have been issued. 

There are 2 parts to the scheme. 

Part A: YESS support during judicial mediation hearings Part B: YESS assistance with valuation of claim and settlement negotiations 

Unrepresented claimants applying for help under the scheme must be committed to trying to settle their cases. YESS does not represent claimants in employment tribunal proceedings and will not assist in advancing a claimant’s claim towards its final hearing. 

The scheme contributes directly to YESS’s overarching objective of relieving the social and economic cost of litigation, as it frequently results in the settlement of the case well in advance of a final hearing. 

During this financial period, 60 cases were taken under the scheme. 32 of those cases were settled. 

At the time of publishing these accounts, Trust for London has granted continuation funding for YESS to operate LETSSS for a further 2 years, commencing March 2024. In the interim, YESS continues to operate LETSSS from its general fund, albeit at reduced capacity. 

## **Mediation Services** 

In December 2022, YESS concluded the DRAW (Dispute Resolution Assistance in the Workplace) project within Greater London, funded by Trust for London. 

DRAW mediation was set up during 2020, initially as a means by which to resolve workplace issues arising from the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic. It was expanded to cover all workplace issues later in 2020 and received renewal grant funding in 2021. 

The service provided pro bono online mediation to employees and employers within Greater London. 

The service received promising levels of enquiries throughout; however, the number of cases being referred to mediation remained relatively low. 

Evaluation of the project concluded that: 

A free mediation service led by a small charity was not, over the period of the project, universally attractive to parties to workplace disputes. 

We believe that the low take up of the service was primarily because parties were not sufficiently aware of the features and benefits of mediation in advance of encountering DRAW. In particular: 

- A. Employees often expected or hoped that DRAW would advise them about their case and/or represent them at a mediation or more generally to resolve their case. 

- B. Employers only occasionally responded positively to approaches from DRAW to mediate with an employee who had requested DRAW services. Although DRAW provided comprehensive and accessible information at the point of contact, employers’ pre-existing lack of knowledge and/or preconceptions about mediation meant that this was in many cases insufficient to persuade them to engage with the service. 

In addition, attempts to raise general awareness of the service with employers directly (by email and phone) were not welcomed. In most cases they were ignored or declined. DRAW team members engaged in this work frequently found that they were suspected of selling something, even though the emphasis was firmly placed on the service being free.

## **Your Employment Settlement Service** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 30 June 2023** 

YESS believes that affordable and free mediation services have a long-term place in the workplace dispute resolution landscape. YESS will continue to offer such services directly to parties and will continue to find opportunities to educate potential users on the benefits of mediation. However, this will not include matching parties with volunteer mediators under an arms-length brand such as DRAW. 

## **Improving YESS’s reach** 

In early 2023, YESS was able to further expand its advice offering by adding 2 part-time solicitors to the legal team, bringing the team to 5 solicitors. YESS was also able to create a standalone post of Finance Officer for the first time, expanding the support team to 3 staff. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

YESS ends this financial year with a total surplus of £41,655 (an unrestricted fund surplus of £24,223 and a restricted fund surplus of £18,513). 

The unrestricted fund surplus resulted from increased fee income and higher than expected levels of donations received. 

The restricted fund surplus resulted from lower levels of expenditure on projects. This year’s surplus broadly equates to last year’s carry forward. 

## **Principal Funding Sources** 

YESS is funded substantially by fees charged for the giving of legal advice to employees and employers. YESS operates a cross-subsidy model, with higher earners paying higher fees than lower earners. In this period, such fees constituted approximately 76% of YESS’s income. 

The remainder is made up of grant income and ad hoc donations, details of which are noted in Note 12. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The trustees' stated objective to achieve a level of reserves equating to 9 months' unrestricted funds. 

This reserves policy applies for 2 reasons: 

1. for growing YESS and furthering the charitable objectives, in particular, to enable YESS to expand its pro bono advice offering and increase activity in the areas of research and training (charitable objectives 4 & 5); 

2. to ensure sufficient cash to meet YESS’s financial commitments to staff, suppliers and other creditors. Despite effective credit control procedures, YESS is often at the behest of large employers’ invoice payment schedules. Sufficient reserve funds are needed to mitigate payment delays. 

The unrestricted reserves currently stand at £166,814 being 6 months of the current year's unrestricted fund expenditure. 

The trustees are satisfied with the level of reserves at the end of this year.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Your Employment Settlement Service** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Your Employment Settlement Service ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2023. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of FCCA which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2023** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Plant and machinery -  33% on cost 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

During the year ended 30 June 2023, the charity utilised £86,696 of restricted grant funding. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
