Excellent – confirmed parts I already knew – identified what I didn’t know and need to know and look into.  Definitely recommend for anyone involved with payroll year end.

Key legislation, 23 September

This year the key legislation day will be updating delegates on a wide range of topics from the Agency Workers Regulations, working time issues and harassment at work to whistleblowing, collective redundancy consultation, and discrimination on grounds of religion or belief. The impact of parts of the Equality Act 2010 will be considered in sessions looking at the new provisions on pre-employment inquiries, at changes to the law on pregnancy, maternity and paternity, and non-financial remedies for discrimination. Our expert speakers will also be reviewing recent changes to the law on age discrimination and on equal pay.


New case law, 24 September

The new case law day will explain the practical significance of some of the leading decisions over the past year. Issues to be explored include employment status, implied contractual terms relating to trust and confidence, dealing with team moves, varying contracts of employment, protecting confidential information, and the right to legal representation in internal disciplinary hearings.
