Employment Law & HR Legislation update - Free Webinar

There has been a flurry of government announcements on business regulation, at the same time as the most important changes in employment legislation we’ve seen in years. This webinar aims to bring you bang up-to-date with recent changes that you need to know about, and takes a look forward at the future direction of workplace regulation.

The webinar will focus on 3 main areas:

• Checks end on Eastern European workers.

2. The landscape going forward – the government’s ‘Plan for Growth’

• Review of employment law and employment tribunals – what’s been proposed and what’s likely to happen?
• Dual Discrimination in Equality Act postponed
• Time off for training not to apply to SMEs
• 3rd party harassment in Equality Act under review.

3. In the pipeline anyway
