Autumn/Winter 2016 issue of Hempsons’ Employment Newsbrief is available now

The latest edition of Hempsons Employment Newsbrief is now available for you to read.

The newsbrief opens with an ‘In a Nutshell’ – summarising some topical matters that are likely to be relevant to you/your organisation.

In this edition we also look at a number of recent and important employment cases covering a wide range of issues including whistleblowing claims and protection, “protected conversations” and flexible working requests.

We comment on a significant decision from the Court of Appeal which could affect Trusts and organisations providing vocational placements for students.

We also discuss an EAT decision confirming that pay protection for a disabled employee moved to a lower paid role on account of a disability can constitute a reasonable adjustment.
