Watch Back: Your 2025 Employment Law Update

There have been several important employment law changes arising from the courts and new legislation in the past year. In response to that, ISME held this webinar with Katherine McVeigh, Barrister-at-Law to provide important updates to Irish SMEs.

Some of the areas we covered in the webinar are:

• A review of the WRC Annual Report – what are the most common types of cases for an employer to be aware of?
• New law relating to settlement agreements under the Employment Equality Act 1998
• How to effectively manage long term absences of an employee and what are the risks?
• Key Principles for Investigations prior to a Disciplinary Procedure
• Probationary employees: What are the risks if there is a failure to manage employees on probationary period properly and how to effectively manage them?
• Recent important employment law case law and key legal principles arising from the case law that every employer should know
