The Employment Rights Bill: An employer’s guide – what you need to know and do to get ahead

The Employment Rights Bill: An employer’s guide – what you need to know and do to get ahead

Webinar recorded on Thursday 14 November 2024

The Employment Rights Bill has certainly made headline news. With changes touching most areas of employment law including unfair dismissal, flexible work, firing and rehiring, single status workers and liability for third-party harassment, to say this is a game changer would be an understatement. 

But what does it mean for your business? Will the changes put a strain on resources, will it become economically impossible in light of this radical shift? 

Our highly experienced employment law experts, Simon Gilmour and Sally Gwillam will guide you through the key changes in the new laws, stripping away the hype and focusing on what you really need to know and what you should be doing to get ahead of the legislation coming into force. 

During this practical and informative session, we will talk through the changes and how you as an employer should prepare:

  • Unfair dismissal from day one
  • Liability for third-party harassment
  • Zero-hours contracts
  • The ban on Fire and rehire
  • Family-friendly changes
  • What's not covered in the new Bill and why

Who should watch? 

If you are a senior decision-maker with influence over your workforce, this hour-long session is right for you. Whether you have just hired your first employee, or you are running a large established business, the new bill will affect you and your workforce.
