Welcome to the April edition of InView
I’m Jennifer and I’ll be taking over our monthly employment law update – great to be here! Let’s dive in...
This month we’re covering a few notable cases: Korpysa v Impact Recruitment Services on mistaken dismissals, and Hewston v Ofsted – a reminder of the need for clear policies and standards.
We’re keeping a close eye on the Employment Rights Bill, including updates to collective redundancy rules as it moves to the House of Lords – you can track changes using our guide.
Finally, we’ve launched our first in-person Mock Investigation event, focusing on third-party harassment – spaces are limited so grab a spot whilst you can!
Until next month,
Jen
