The RailStaff Awards 2024

Angela Clark

Said the following about Beth Butt:

“Beth Butt has been an invaluable asset to the HR South East Route team of Network Rail since joining us as an Employee Relations Advisor.

I believe Beth’s efforts should be recognised as she is an inspiring and passionate person who deserves to win this award. She is well respected by the team for her drive, commitment and knowledge. She expertly deals with each grievance on a systematic basis always applying attention to detail and regularly keeps the team up to date. Beth goes above and beyond in providing exceptional support to her witnesses, sending out guidelines on the procedures and formalities of a witness, as well as visiting the employment tribunal a week before the hearing to eradicate any anxieties staff may have. She also attends the hearing herself but in the event she cannot, she arranges suitable cover on the day to provide additional support to the witnesses. Beth constantly strives to improve matters and therefore any lessons learned are taken on board to improve the level of service and smoothness of the next hearing.“
