Welcome to our inaugural employment law update, the first in a series of monthly email bulletins for busy HR professionals and SME directors.
These bulletins summarise the absolute essentials of what all employers need to know. So for example, this month, the Bribery Act came into force on 1st July, and we explain in our featured analysis how it will impact on you and your business. We also consider some recent developments in redundancy law and consider other HR developments.
Meanwhile, have you reviewed your working practices for Agency Workers? The Agency Worker Regulations mean that agency workers will have the same rights to basic employment and working conditions (e.g. pay, rest breaks, duration of working time) as those recruited directly by you from 1st October 2011, provided that they have worked for twelve weeks. We are happy to talk to you about the practical ramifications of this groundbreaking legislation.
