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.
