Current developments in employment law - returning to business as normal?
Who should attend
This course is aimed at experienced HR professionals and in-house lawyers. It is assumed that delegates have a working knowledge of employment law.
Synopsis
As vaccine programmes promise new hope, employers and the Government are looking to move beyond the pandemic and plan for the future - a future outside the European Union. Will the Government return to its employment manifesto commitments, or has COVID-19 reset policy priorities? What is achievable? How will the pandemic change HR practices in the long term?
Before COVID-19, the Government was expected to deliver new rights for carers, parents and casual workers, as well as make changes to flexible working and the enforcement of workplace rights. Meanwhile, employers are already responding to off-payroll (IR35) changes, Brexit, a new immigration regime and significant case law on holiday pay, working time, equality and employment status. The employment tribunal system is also facing challenges and is promised reform.
Join our experienced employment lawyers online for this summary of the latest employment law developments and practical implications.
