    March Employment Seminar – Defending Tribunal Claims: Maximising Success, Minimising Stress

    Following the abolition of employment tribunal fees, we have seen a sharp increase in the number of claims brought against employers. With this in mind, our March 2019 seminar will take the form of a mock employment tribunal hearing to ensure that you and your managers are in a stronger position to prepare for and defend any tribunal claims.

    We will be joined by barristers from leading chambers to give you a realistic insight into what happens at a tribunal hearing. You will have the opportunity to see witnesses give evidence and be cross-examined, and watch the barristers present legal arguments to the tribunal panel.

    This session will be of particular interest to HR professionals and in-house advisers, as well as managers with responsibility for handling employment matters who may be required to give evidence at a tribunal. It is relevant even if you do not currently have any ongoing tribunal complaints, as we will highlight how tribunals approach matters such as decision-making and note-taking, enabling you to take pre-emptive steps to ensure your pre-litigation procedures are watertight.

    As always, you will have an opportunity to ask questions of our experts and share your experiences with other delegates.
