Family-friendly Rights and the Law in brief:
In an ever-changing legal environment, employers must ensure that policies and procedures are up to date and effectively implemented. The Government has extended the right to request flexible working to parents with children up to the age of 16. This extension, effective from 6 April 2009, of working parents’ rights could result in a quarter of a million employees changing their working hours.
This course provides comprehensive coverage of the existing law relating to maternity, adoption, paternity and parental rights, the rules on flexible working, and the new law in the Work and Families Act.
This event is CPD accredited.
Designed for:
HR Managers, officers, administrators and line managers
