Thames Valley HR forum - legal issues on recruitment

details

Blake Lapthorn's Employment team held its Thames Valley HR forum on Tuesday 17 January at its Oxford office.

This forum took delegates through areas of concern which HR professionals and managers alike need to be aware of before, during and after the interview process. Topics covered included job advertisements and application forms; the arrangements for and conduct of interviews; health questionnaires; pre-employment checks and references; and the making and withdrawing of job offers. We will highlight how you can seek to protect your business from claims by following best practice at each stage of the process.

Jim Whiter and Vicky Schollar took delegates through the various issues to consider, which included a presentation and an interactive case study that highlighted many of the issues discussed.

Delegates were able to email any particular queries in advance of the forum to include within the session.
