Following the General Election on 4 July 2024, the Labour party has formed a new government with a huge majority and mandate for change.
Labour’s manifesto promises several significant changes to the UK’s employment laws. These include potential changes affecting workers’ rights in areas including employment status, unfair dismissal rights, flexible working, dismissals, and rehiring.
In this interactive seminar, Damian Kelly and Amita Chauhan, from Lodders Solicitors LLP, will explain exactly what changes employers will have to navigate, how those changes are likely to impact their businesses and, crucially, what steps they should be taking by way of response.
This event provides a great opportunity to network with like-minded individuals and share best practice. Attendees can also ask Damian and Amita questions, leaning on their expertise in the field of employment law.
