- get up to speed on the latest changes affecting holiday pay and a reminder of the rights for those off sick or on maternity/paternity leave in relation to holiday
- learn some key top tips on drafting restrictive covenants in contracts of employment and hear about the process that should be followed to enforce them
- find out all you need to know about developments on the use of zero hours contracts, Apprenticeship Agreements, the new concept of caste discrimination, the right to be accompanied to hearings and much, much more
- finally, hear Birketts' review of the 10 most important cases in the past 12 months.
