Programme
REVIEW OF THE YEAR (PART 1 - LOOKING BACK AT 2022)
This has been a massive year, where we have emerged from the worst aspects of Covid-19 and its impact on employment but still have many of the effects with us.
So much has happened and Mark McAllister gives you his assessment of what’s important for Northern Ireland’s workplaces.
Mark delivers his annual round-up of the key employment law developments in 2022 not covered elsewhere in detail in this programme and sets out the trends that have emerged since November last year.
This year his review Part 1 includes:
- LRA Guidance on Harassment and Bullying
- Top cases of the year part 1
- Bereavement Leave and Pay
- Collective Dispute Trends and Pay Pressures
- Domestic violence
54 minutes 42 seconds of video content, plus access to all of Mark McAllister's notes and slides via our online 'Delegate Dashboard' LMS.
REVIEW OF THE YEAR (PART 2 - LOOKING FORWARD TO 2023)
In his second lecture of the event, Mark considers the likely employment law developments that we’ll see in 2023 and what we can do now to mitigate risk and maximise opportunities.
We don’t just look at the bad stuff – there are some positives out there, if you care to look:
- The Brexit Freedoms Bill
- The Employment (Zero Hours Workers and Banded Weekly Working Hours) Bill.
- AI and automated HR decisions – relationships and algorithms can go horribly wrong
- Where the EU is going with labour law – individual and collective – gig economy, collective bargaining, family friendly etc
- Umbrella companies – the not so new bad practice?
- Hybrid working – short and medium-term lessons learned
57 minutes 03 seconds of video content, plus access to all of Mark McAllister's notes and slides via our online 'Delegate Dashboard' LMS.
THE NORTHERN IRELAND CASE LAW REVIEW 2022 AND KEY NEXT STEPS
2022 saw the appointment of a new President of Industrial Tribunals and the Fair Employment Tribunal in NI in former Vice President, Noel Kelly, whose seemingly radical decision in 2018 regarding holiday pay calculation was ratified by the Court of Appeal.
Recent months have seen the flow of NI cases increase substantially and we now have a good idea about cases being dealt with remotely and in person by NI employment tribunals.
Jason Elliott BL sets out the main developments in cases such as these:
- O’Donnell v Craigantlet Farms Ltd
- Craig v The Management Committee of Assistance Dogs Northern Ireland
- Wahab v Four Seasons (No 7) Limited
- Dawson v PMC Limited t/a Bluebird Care Holywood
- Taylor Sterling v Logan Wellbeing Belfast Limited & Ors
- Linton v FP McCann Ltd
- McCaughley v Footprints Women’s Centre
- Dinsmore v Terex GB Limited
55 minutes 03 seconds of video content, plus access to all of Jason Elliott BL's notes and slides via our online 'Delegate Dashboard' LMS.
