A WCVA seminar delivered by Hugh James Solicitors

Whether an organisation is incorporated or unincorporated, the trustees are ultimately responsible for general control and management of administration. This includes the employment of any staff that the organisation may take on, so it is important that trustees are aware of their responsibilities when hiring. 

Responsibilities when employing staff will examine the role of the employer to its employees, from recruitment to termination of employment. It will give participants the legal knowledge and practical advice needed to ensure that they can properly manage their responsibilities as employers.

The seminar will cover the following topics:

– Avoiding discrimination through recruitment and understanding an employer’s potential liability under the Equality Act 2010
– Contractual obligations, and terms and conditions of employment – what do you have to provide and when?
– Is your organisation complying with the eight data protection principles under the Data Protection Act 1998?
– Understanding the role of the employer in dealing with disciplinary and grievance procedures – minimising the risk of claims in the Employment Tribunal
– Effectively managing sickness absence to minimise the impact upon your organisation
– Redundancy round up: reviewing the employer’s obligations when going through a reorganisation

Book your place here and ensure you’re doing everything you need for your staff.

Afternoon tea will be served prior to each seminar.
