UK legal events, training and webinars

Upcoming events, webinars and training

  • Belgian employment law training

    An employer found guilty of discrimination by a Belgian court can face a sentence of up to one year in prison. There is no concept of redundancy in Belgium and no concept of unfair dismissal either.

  • Cyber and data breach training – for employers and pension schemes

    The increasing prevalence and sophistication of cyber-attacks, volume of personal data held by employers and pension schemes, and increased levels of home working mean that now, more than ever, pension schemes and employers are concerned about cyber risk.

  • Diversity and inclusion conference

    Whilst policy focus in the UK has long been on “levelling up”, the pandemic has exacerbated many equality issues at the forefront of such strategies. The pandemic has also left in its wake a greater shift in societal attitudes and working expectations, with an appreciation of the speed at which change can be effected. Increasingly, such issues are also subject to external influences, such as growing pressure from investors, customers and suppliers for improved staff diversity.

  • 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.

  • French employment law training

    Based on the Napoleonic code and amended by statute ever since, French employment law is markedly different from the UK’s.

  • German employment law training

    Germany is a major trading partner for many countries throughout the world, not to mention the most important single market in the European Union.

  • Immigration UK - Sponsor licencing modules

    Free movement of EEA and Swiss citizens ended on 31 December 2020. In anticipation of this, a new Statement of Changes to the Immigration Rules took effect from 1 December. These are fundamental changes of which HR teams need to be aware since they impact on immigration compliance processes.

  • Italian employment law training

    Italy probably has the most complex employment law in Europe. Did you know that in Italy: there are more than 400 national collective agreements in force; four different categories of employees, all subject to specific (and different) rules and regulations; and that unfair dismissal claims can, and do, result in compulsory reinstatement and awards of more than 40 months of salary?

  • 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.
