EMPLOYMENT legislation comes into sharper focus at a seminar this week.

Chapel Hill-based recruitment agency Stafflex has joined forces with Huddersfield law firm Eaton Smith to stage the event from 7.45am on Thursday at Eaton Smith’s High Street offices.

The first hour will provide an update on important new employment legislation for 2011 with particular focus on the Agency Workers Directive, which comes into force in October, 2011.

It will also look at key learning points from recent employment cases and proposed changes to the employment tribunal system.

The second part of the event will focus on internet misuse and what employers should include when formulating an internet policy in light of social networking sites such as Facebook and employees airing their views in a near-public forum.
