A Practical Seminar for Business Owners and HR Professionals
To aid your preparations and help you understand how these updates may impact your policies, procedures and staff training, WorkNest is hosting a free one-hour seminar, where Head of Team and Solicitor, Hussain Kayani, will walk you through everything you need to know to stay legally compliant.
Most importantly, we want to use the time to address any challenges you’re facing right now, which is why we’ll be encouraging questions and open discussion throughout.
Here’s an overview of the key areas our experts will be covering:
Get up to speed on recent developments, including the latest approved methods for calculating annual leave and holiday pay and changes to record-keeping requirements under the Working Time Regulations 1998 (WTR).
Learn more about the draft legislation to amend the Equality Act coming into effect from 1 January 2024, which will preserve certain EU-derived equality rights and for establishing an equal pay comparator.
Get a helpful summary of several new Acts introduced in 2023, encompassing extended redundancy protection for new parents, a week’s unpaid leave for carers, and additional leave and pay for employees with children receiving neonatal care.
Hear about recent adjustments to consultation requirements, specifically pertaining to businesses with fewer than 50 employees and transfers involving fewer than 10 employees.
Get acquainted with the Flexible Working Act, which will come into force next year, and learn how this impacts (and doesn’t impact) the way requests are dealt with.
Get early insight into what lies ahead in employment law so that you’re not left scrambling.
