Christine Quinn, Legal Island and Seamus McGranaghan, O'Reilly Stewart Solicitors, are BACK to discuss your employment law queries live in our webinar series, “Employment Law at 11”. This month they discuss:
Equality Matters Special
1. Neurodiversity in the workplace
Recent CIPD research shows that 1 in 5 neurodivergent employees have experienced harassment or discrimination at work, and only half say they would feel safe to talk about neurodiversity in their organisation. And case law is stacking up, demonstrating the importance of getting it right with your employees who are not neurotypical. Seamus takes you through best practice, and recent cases that need to be on your radar.
2. Menopause and the workplace
8th March is International Women’s Day and we’re talking about something that will happen to all women one day – menopause. Women make up nearly 50% of the working population in Northern Ireland and with the change in pension age, it's likely that more women will be working later into life. So, employers need to consider how they can support women in the workplace, so they can hold on to their experienced staff members. Seamus talks you through the guidance, best practice and caselaw to be aware of.
Please note that the employment law matters discussed in this webinar apply primarily to Northern Ireland.
