International HR Services: UK Employment Law Update 2024
Speakers
As 2024 unfolds, we have already witnessed political, economic, and societal changes that are influencing the employment law agenda in the UK. Our Bird & Bird legal experts are here to offer essential support and guidance, helping you understand how these hot topics and legal changes can impact both you and your business.
To stay informed, join our London Employment Team for an insightful overview of key developments. These include the importance of post-termination restrictions and key considerations when undertaking internal investigations, along with emerging hot topics such as exploring neurodiversity in the workplace and holiday pay. Additionally, they will share their perspectives on the upcoming changes expected in the year ahead, as well as the changes that a Labour government is proposing.
While this event primarily caters to in-house counsel and HR professionals, it is also relevant to anyone responsible for people-related matters within their organisation. We hope you can join us!
