Dorset Chamber Premier Business Partner Lester Aldridge’s Employment & HR Team are hosting their annual Employment Law Update on Wednesday 24 April 2024 at 9.30am in their Bournemouth office.
This seminar will inform you about recent developments in legislation and case law, and provide you with guidance on what these mean in practical terms for your business and the steps you can take to avoid costly mistakes and pitfalls.
This past year has proved a busy and challenging year for employers with workforce shortages, continued demand for flexible working and increasing sickness and performance issues. Against this backdrop, several changes to employment legislation have been implemented affecting holiday pay, maternity and family friendly rights. Employment Tribunal cases and awards have continued to rise. The economic climate remains fragile with an increasing number of insolvencies and ‘fire sales’ of businesses creating a large number of issues around TUPE, redundancies and due diligence matters relating to NMW underpayments, holiday pay errors, inadequacies in RTW checks and incorrect furlough claims.
Our seminar will cover these issues with:
- a round-up on recent and forthcoming changes, including holiday, family friendly and discrimination matters
- a look at immigration issues and flexible working
- how to address capability and performance issues
- what to consider when buying or selling a business from an employment point of view
- a review of employment statistics
