Employment Law Update | Reluctant Returners, Misconduct and Holiday Pay Calculations

Join our business partner WorkNest for the latest on Employment Law and HR Updates.

Join us to learn:

• The right way to handle reluctant returners, and misconduct justified by the employee on health and safety grounds – with disputes of this nature expected to continue post-restrictions, if an employee claims that attending the workplace will detrimentally impact their physical and mental health or tries to justify their misconduct on health and safety grounds, how should employers respond without inviting legal issues?

• Potential changes to holiday pay calculations for ad-hoc, term-time only and zero hours workers – following the eagerly anticipated Supreme Court decision in Harpur Trust v Brazel, employers may be forced to reconsider their practices when it comes to calculating holiday pay (yet again!). If the Supreme Court rules in favour of the employee, this landmark case will also give rise to further claims from affected workers in respect of historical underpayments.

• Other important case law outcomes that impact HR best practice, plus the employment law changes that may still be on the cards in 2022.

We’ll be rounding off the session with a live Q&A, so if you have a burning employment query regarding any of these topics or another issue you would like some free expert advice on, submit it in advance via the registration form or use the chat box during the webinar
