Employment Law Updates

Employment Law Updates 

September 2024 sees the introduction of new statutory obligations for Council’s to prevent sexual harassment of their Employees.  Furthermore, October will see the introduction of new entitlements for locums and other staff working on fixed term contracts, to request that the contract be extended for a longer period or made permanent..

To enable Councils to respond to these new entitlements, as well as bring them up to date with new Employment Laws that are planned for 2025, we are conducting a 1 hour Zoom meeting to provide members with the information they need to know:

Requirements  

We use Zoom for our training courses. You will need to download the Zoom application if you haven’t used it before https://bit.ly/3DeEeT5 

If it has been a while since you last used Zoom, it’s recommended that you log in early as there may be automatic Zoom updates that will delay your entry to the course.  

You will need a device that has a camera and a microphone. Minimum system requirements can be found here https://bit.ly/3Fj19uD  

Please name yourself appropriately so you can easily be identified by the trainer. You can find out how to do this here https://bit.ly/3cj2jKi  

Important note: 

Our online training is live and interactive, you must be in a place where you can do this safely. Driving whilst attending our online training will result in you being removed and your council will be charged the full cost of the course.
