Latest developments in employment law for strategic HR leads

This online event on Wednesday 27 April will provide an intensive update on the latest developments in employment law for strategic HR leads.
 

About the event and who should attend

Senior colleagues from Eversheds Sutherland will give a comprehensive update on a number of employment law developments, followed by Q&As on their presentations. For those who prefer to submit questions in advance, there will be an opportunity to do this, as well as raise questions verbally or in writing on the day. 

This event assumes an expert working knowledge of employment law and practice and is designed to bring senior HR colleagues in member HEIs up to date on recent and anticipated employment law developments and consider their impact on HEIs in a highly challenging workforce context.

As we will be encouraging questions and discussion, we are asking participants to observe the Chatham House Rule, and so we won’t be recording the event.

Nicola Bennison, Partner, Eversheds Sutherland 
David O’Hara, Principal Associate, Eversheds Sutherland
