Event description

With the new Government committed to expanding day one rights, it has never been more important to ensure that you are recruiting the right people and managing the legal risks around the recruitment process.

This workshop will take you through an interactive case study touching on various employment law considerations in the recruitment process including:

  • Avoiding discrimination when advertising, shortlisting and selecting (including removing unconscious bias)
  • The rules on vetting candidates on social media
  • Navigating the interview 
  • When and how offers can be withdrawn
  • The use of probationary periods for new starters.

If you've dietary requests or need any adjustments to take part, please let us know using our requirements form.
