Northeast Human Resources Association and
Arnold & Porter LLP invite you to the next in the series of:

Key UK/EU Employment Law Issues
for US-based HR Professionals and
In-house Counsel

for Guests of Arnold & Porter

October 17, 2012

Many US-based HR professionals and in-house lawyers are responsible for handling employment issues that arise in their company's UK and EU operations. Training opportunities are rare and often very costly. Henry Clinton-Davis, head of the UK/EU Employment Law team at international law firm, Arnold & Porter LLP, is leading the next in his series of workshops in conjunction with NEHRA, New England's premier HR association, to cater specifically to their needs. Henry has been advising US companies on European employment issues for much of his career. Many of his clients are technology, life science, and pharma-focused companies located in or around Boston. The workshop aims to leave you with the ability to spot the key issues as well as practical tips to put into place to protect the needs of your business.

If you have colleagues within your own company or in other companies, who you think may find the seminar of interest, please pass this invitation to them. Seats are allocated on a strictly first-come, first-served basis. RSVP below to ensure a place. For the first workshop in the series we had to turn people away!

Topics this time around include:

  • Performance Management in the UK
    • New rules on unfair dismissal
    • Why US PIPs don't work
    • Traps for the unwary
  • Dealing with sick & stressed employees
    • Long and short term ill health issues
    • Depression & disability discrimination
    • Practical issues
  • Non competes and restrictive covenants in the UK
    • Will my US non-competes work?
