The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) conducts audits to ensure that employers are complying with employee rights legislation, e.g., evidence of working times being adhered to, particularly rest periods and breaks. Being notified of a WRC claim by an individual against your business can be overwhelming and challenging. However, there are initial steps to take to ensure you’re fully prepared to handle such a claim.

An employee calling in sick or saying they can’t make it in without specifying why can not only be frustrating, but disruptive. While a sick or stress leave of absence, or an employee requesting an extended break for another reason isn’t uncommon, it can upset the flow of your business. How you react to each case of absence can make all the difference.

Where | The Kingsley Hotel
Date | Thursday 6th October, 2022
Time | 9:30am – 5:00pm

As a manager or supervisor, you need to be aware of how employment law protects employees. With an ever increasing number of EU and Irish employment laws, and a constantly changing landscape, compliance with the law is a significant challenge for anyone tasked with the responsibility of managing people in your organisation. This workshop will provide you with the information, competencies and procedures required to ensure that your organisation complies with all employment laws and regulations.

Where | Clayton Hotel Liffey Valley
Date | Wednesday 19th October, 2022

One of the toughest challenges managers and HR professionals face is responding to allegations of bullying or sexual harassment. This workshop will provide you with important information which you can put into practice if an allegation of bullying harassment or sexual harassment is made. The workshop will provide you with an insight to the formal and informal resolution options and will guide you through how to manage an investigation and how to maintain a productive work environment during the course of an investigation.
