Beyond the Job Description: What’s Classed as Unreasonable?
Update: 2025-08-19
Description
Where do we draw the line on “any other duties as required”?
From junior staff cleaning up excrement 🧹 to graduates being sent to move cars to dodge parking tickets 🚗 - some workplace “extras” cross into unreasonable (and unsafe) territory.
In this HR:ER episode, our HR consultancy digs into:
- What really counts as a “reasonable” duty?
- Who gets to decide when the line is crossed?
- When does inconvenience tip into health & safety risk?
- Should policies spell out limits - or stay vague?
💬 We’d love to hear from you: What’s the most unreasonable duty you’ve ever been asked to do at work?
🎧 Tune in now! Our HR software includes a custom policy and contract builder, so you can clearly outline duties and save your business from tribunals - starting from just £1 per person, per month.
