Join us for two short webinars where we will discuss the UK government’s proposed employment law reforms and what they mean for your business.
The government has announced a number of proposed changes to employment law, as part of its review of retained EU law “to ensure that our regulations are tailored to the needs of the UK economy and help create the conditions for growth”. Further details can be found in our recent insight and blog post.
A number of the proposals can be described as “tinkering around the edges”, but there are two key changes that could have more significant implications for businesses operating in the UK, namely the proposed amendments to the Working Time Regulations 1998 concerning holidays and holiday pay, and the introduction of a three-month statutory time limit on non-compete provisions.
Further details of the webinars are set out below.
