Central and eastern European HR - employment law in Hungary
Hungary has a very complex employment and labor law. There are lots of employment issues in Hungary where the law is silent, so court rulings shall be duly considered also in the day‑to‑day employment management. If the strict rules on termination are disregarded, unfair dismissal claims can result in awards of 12 months of salary or in certain cases compulsory reinstatement.
Central and eastern European HR - employment law in Russia
Russian employment law is highly regulated, overly formalistic and slow to change with a changing world. Labor disputes are not uncommon for large and small employers alike. Procedural precision from the moment a company is incorporated is critical. Russian laws are not impacted by directives of the European Union. Specific problems may arise when HR is not managed locally. HR management requires a deep knowledge of local rules.
Central and eastern European HR - employment law in the Czech Republic and Slovakia
Formerly a single country, the Czech and Slovak employment laws have drifted apart since the 90’s, while keeping many similar concepts. Similarities include vigorous protection of employees as the weaker party, strict formalities for hiring and difficult terminations with a risk of reinstatement and substantial compensation for the employee.
Central eastern European HR - employment law in Poland
While Polish employment law presents various challenges for employers in some areas, it is relatively straightforward in other areas. For example the employers may face difficulties in scope of organisation of working time, but dismissals may appear less problematic then in other neighbouring jurisdictions, as long as certain formal requirements are met.
Dutch employment law training
Employee rights are well protected under Dutch law, especially in dismissal cases, but employers are able to swiftly adjust staff levels in their company due to changes in, for example a fluctuation in workload. A wide variety of options are available for employers to hire people in a flexible manner provided that the rules are used properly.
Eversheds Sutherland Pensions Conference
Like so many events and meetings at the moment, our annual pensions conference this year moves virtual and is much shorter. We hope you agree however that it still offers the same great quality speakers and insights into the future of pensions.
IR35 and your contingent workforce: Tackling common misconceptions and answering the key questions
The original introduction of the new IR35, or “off-payroll” working rules was delayed earlier this year due to the pandemic, but there is now less than five months to go until implementation of the new regime. From 6 April 2021, medium and large-sized private sector organisations will have significant new responsibilities.
Irish employment law training
The Irish and UK legal systems have many similarities. However, in an employment context those similarities can be deceptive.

Labor and employee relations - the law and best practice for maintaining constructive relations
Many senior managers lack experience of working with unions and employee representatives. This course is designed to address this need in a virtual format, providing a chance to learn from specialist labour lawyers with extensive practical experience of dealing with industrial relations issues both in the public and private sector.
Nordic (Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden) employment law training
This Nordic employment training course covers, in turn, an introduction to the employment law systems of Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway. We will also share the experience we have gained in assisting clients with their operations in the Nordic region, and provide comparisons and contrasts with the UK.
Pension scams and the LGPS
We are starting to see a marked increase in the number of complaints that LGPS pension funds are receiving from claims management companies (CMCs) relating to historic transfers out of the LGPS. Nearly 70% of LGPS funds we have surveyed have received claims in the past year. These claims often start with a Data Subject Access Request and soon escalate into a formal complaint.
Pensions topical issues webinar
Although one topic has dominated this year, there is still a steady stream of legal, regulatory and policy developments for pension scheme trustees and sponsors to take on board as we head towards 2021. With the end of the Brexit transitional period looming and the Pension Schemes Bill now making steady progress through Parliament, 2020 could still go out with a bang.
Sponsor licencing modules - helping you manage UK immigration
Free movement of EEA and Swiss citizens is ending on 31 December 2020. In anticipation of this, a new Statement of Changes to the Immigration Rules is to take effect from 1st December. These are fundamental changes of which HR teams need to be aware since they impact on immigration compliance processes.
