Employment Law 2020 – Invitation to our Free Seminar
2019 was supposed to be a quiet year for HR professionals and employment lawyers. That’s not quite how it turned out…
To help support our clients, we have teamed up with 24-7 Staffing to offer a FREE briefing to help you prepare for the changes in 2020 as well as to highlight some you may have missed in 2019. It is an invaluable opportunity to have your questions answered by an expert with a wealth of employment law experience.
Thursday 27th February 2020, 9.30 am to 11.00am
Chippenham Golf Club, Malmesbury Rd, Chippenham SN15 5LT
What’s covered?
Whilst there was not a huge amount of new legislation to grapple with, the courts were extra busy and gave lots of existing laws and established decisions a shake-up – including pay, employee and worker, issues faced when suspending someone, discrimination in the workplace especially sex, parental leave and perceived disabilities as well as when employers can be liable for the actions of their staff. There was no let up for employers when it came to holiday pay – two changes in the law that will affect everyone.
As for protecting your business against a competing ex-employee, a 99-year-old case was turned on its head.
2020 is going to be a busy year, even without the new government’s plans for enhanced workers’ rights and a new enforcement body, there will be changes to the tax treatment of off-payroll working (IR35) and termination payments, holiday pay (again), bereavement leave and contracts for every new starter – including workers from day one.
This informal and informative seminar is for anyone who has to manage staff and will give you the up-to-date knowledge and tools to keep you on the right side of the law.
2020 looks like it will keep everyone who deals with HR busy – we look forward to seeing you there.
