Flexible working, restructuring and employment discrimination
This comprehensive one day conference will provide both legal and practical guidance on procedures for implementing flexible working and "family friendly" rights at work. With the increased demand for flexible working following the recent change in the law comes an extremely wide range of potential legal issues, including sex discrimination, age discrimination, and disability discrimination and working time questions. Speakers will take you through the legal procedures of changing working practices and explain authoritatively the legal risks employers run if they get it wrong. Delegates will hear first hand the real-life experiences of organisations that have successfully implemented flexible working practices and the impact it has had on their business.
