Employment Law Webinar – COVID-19 HR issues

30 Jul 2020

Online

10:00 - 11:30


COVID-19 has raised many employment law issues both for employers and employees.  This EnginE webinar, delivered by Lisa Sourbutts, will discuss some of the employment law implications which have arisen, particularly as businesses start to return to the workplace.  Issues which will be covered in this webinar will include the following:

  1. What to do if someone calls in sick with COVID now (they HAVE to be tested so employees can’t just say they have symptoms anymore)

  2. What is the Track & Trace system and what will it mean if your employees are contacted

  3. Rules for those still shielding

  4. What to do if someone refuses to come to work – we can cover a variety of genuine and non-genuine reasons

  5. Home working considerations

  6. Contract variations – the legal process that needs to be followed for altering hours, pay and the potential consequences of getting it wrong

  7. Restructure & Redundancy – the legal process that needs to be followed

Presenter

Lisa is a Chartered Member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development and has a Masters in Human Resource Management.  She is also currently studying an MBA. 

CUBE HR take great pride in working with clients to ensure they are not only compliant with employment legislation, but to also make them best in class.  That is why many of their clients are award winning businesses.
