A conference in Jersey and Guernsey in November will explore
workplace culture from the perspective of employment law
specialists in both Islands.
Walkers is holding the conference in Jersey on Tuesday 12 November
and in Guernsey the following day, to examine workplace culture,
and specifically what it means, why it matters and what it can cost
employers if it goes wrong.
Employment law specialists from Walkers' Jersey, Guernsey and
Ireland offices will speak at the event – along with Clare
Murray, managing partner of CM Murray LLP and specialist adviser to
the House of Commons Women & Equalities Committee in respect of
its Sexual Harassment in the Workplace Inquiry.
Partner Louise Hall, who leads Walkers' Channel Islands
employment law team, said: "A lot of what is said and written
about workplace culture is vague and hard to define, but there are
very real and practical implications when it goes wrong, which HR
teams and in-house lawyers have to deal with every day.
"This event is all about the intersection between workplace
culture and the various stands of employment law, and we are
particularly pleased to have Clare Murray joining us to share her
experiences as specialist adviser to the House of Commons inquiry
into sexual harassment in the workplace.
"We have tailored this event not just at the HR professionals
and General Counsel who deal with workplace culture issues, but
also senior leaders and directors who need a clearer idea of where
this issue as a whole sits on their risk registers."
The events are free, anyone interested can contact linda.campos@walkersglobal.com
to attend.
The events take place at:
· 8 am, Tuesday, 12 November 2019 - Rocco Tower Radisson
Blu, Jersey
· 8 am, Wednesday, 13 November 2019 - Duke of Richmond
Hotel, Guernsey
