These half day seminars provide an opportunity to keep up to date with current employment law issues. With so many recent changes to employment legislation these seminars give advice on current legal employer obligations and employee rights.
These half-day sessions also allow for in-depth discussion and case study style examples. During each seminar we will cover an introductory topic, followed by questions from the audience and a discussion of recent developments in employment law.

Employment Law Seminar - Re-organisation and Redundancy
Most organisations find themselves re-organising to meet the changing demands of the commercial environment or to increase efficiency. This workshop reviews the legal position and looks at ways in which flexibility may be improved. Some re-organisations involve redundancies. Recent decisions have made it even more imperative that the correct procedure is followed. The punishment for failing to comply fully with collective consultation is 90 days pay per employee concerned - even if the mandatory consultation period was only 30 days.
This event will be delivered by Olga Aikin, Aikin Driver Partnership.
This employment law seminar is open to partners, principal partners and non-partners of The Work Foundation. For further information, including prices or to register please email

Employment Law Seminar - Temporary and Agency Workers
Temporary and agency workers are often used to meet peaks in demand or to replace employees such as those who are on sick or maternity leave. Where the need is frequent the employer may set up a bank of staff. These may be sensible arrangements, but the law relating to these workers is far from clear. There is no clear definition of a temporary or casual worker. The law on the position of agency workers is in a state of complete flux, sometimes they are the employee of the end user - but in others they are not.
