Introduction to Employment Law

BPI understands that often this area is seen as a complex minefield that worries employers, especially smaller organisations, who would far rather invest in job creation than disputes with employees.

In this half day course a solicitor will provide you with a realistic overview of the main areas of employment law:

• Contracts
• Unfair Dismissal
• Discrimination

Hopefully busting a few myths along the way and explaining what all the jargon means.

The Solicitor will explain the basics around how each of these three areas of law operates and the potential costs to employers of getting things wrong. Previous attendees have found that they are pleasantly surprised at the actions they can take and that it might not cost the business as much as they thought.

You will then discuss case studies involving scenarios employers may face throughout the employment lifecycle to bring how all this works in reality to life.

There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions, share stories and compare notes with other delegates about how their organisations handle things.
