The Employment law update will focus on 5 key cases from 2010 together with 5 key employment law issues for 2011 that every employer needs to know about including:

- New rights for agency workers – will agency workers be entitled to be treated the same as permanent staff?
- Disciplinary hearings – do employees have a right to be represented by lawyers?
- Recruitment – can you still use health questionnaires during the recruitment process?
- Redundancy – how to avoid unfair dismissal claims
There will also be an “HR Surgery” where you can ask those HR questions you’ve under “Chatham House Rules” to encourage a free discussion.

Free Workshop will be :- The Olympic Business Opportunities for the East Midlands 
Rory Slater recently stated “So far, 14% have gone to companies with between 11 and 20 employees“.
Rory Slater, co-ordinator for Championing Derbyshire, explained how companies can “put themselves in the Olympic shop window” by registering themselves on the website www.competefor.com. Members and guests were helped to register and to fill out their company details.
Rory was keen to explain how the site is not just for multi-million-pound building contracts, but also for services that are offered by far smaller companies.
“Recently, the www.competefor.com website has been looking for services as diverse as printed flags, media training, steel piping, hand driers and men’s ties.
“All of those types of firms operate in East Midlands, so it is up to us to make sure they are aware of this huge potential.”
