Hot topics (and interesting cases)

The first green shoots herald the arrival of our spring seminar. The theme for our seminars is hot topics. We've looked back over the last 6 months and worked out what issues have been exercising our clients and a number of reoccurring problems which we think are worth a reminder of the basics.

These are some of things which have been keeping us (and you) busy:

Investigating disciplinary issues (including police investigations)

• Absence management
• Performance management
• Restructuring and redundancies
• Compromise Agreements
• Casual workers
• Maternity leave
• Flexible working

Like a spring lamb our seminar will romp you through the operational pitfalls of all these issues and give you the knowledge and confidence to deal with them efficiently and fairly. We will also take you through some interesting recent cases which identify key points in a practical way. We will cover topics such as:

• Discrimination
• Unfair dismissal
• Restrictive covenants

as well as any interesting cases which arrive in our inbox between now and the seminars.

And finally we will discuss the recent and imminent changes to legislation such as the increase to the qualifying period for unfair dismissal.
