There have been several important employment law changes arising from the courts and new legislation in the past year. In response to that, ISME held this webinar with Katherine McVeigh, Barrister-at-Law to provide important updates to Irish SMEs.
Some of the areas we covered in the webinar are:
- Recent Code of Practice on the Right to Request Flexible Working and the Right to Request Remote Working, assisting members on the legal complexities of employees’ requests for flexible or remote working arrangements.
- Legal changes to mandatory retirement ages in the workplace
- Increase of statutory sick pay and recent case law on an employer’s obligation to pay sick pay
- Introduction of fines for employers in breach of employment laws, and how to avoid the fines
- Determining Employment Status: self-employed/ employee? Implications for employers, recent case law and new Code of Practice for guidance
- 2024 significant judgments from the courts that every employer should know about
Please note all information is accurate as of the date of recording in October 2024.
