Solicitor Katherine Sinclair, an expert in employment law at Langleys and a speaker at the ‘Flexible Benefits’ seminar, said: “2011 is set to be a difficult year and not surprisingly many businesses may feel redundancy is the only option. However, a workforce who have experienced pay freezes or cuts, short time working, and witnessed friends and colleagues being made redundant, may begin to develop wanderlust once recovery begins.”
The seminar is designed to show how businesses can reduce costs without losing key staff.
Ray Cadman and Richard Whitelock of chartered accountants Garbutt & Elliott will also be speaking as members of the Garbutt & Elliott Employer Rewards and Solutions team. Ray Cadman, Head of Employer Rewards and Solutions at Garbutt & Elliott, said: “It is clear that business leaders need to consider ways to ‘tie in’ key people. Even businesses not affected by the recession will see clear benefits in reducing employment costs.”
The seminar will be held at Ebor Stand, York Racecourse on Wednesday 30 March with registration and breakfast at 8.30am. The seminar runs from 9am till 10am. To book your free place call Lauren Howley on 01904 683075.
