Virtual HR Forum ~ Rubicon & Ellis Jones
Equality, Diversity & Inclusion
Rubicon Recruitment and Ellis Jones Solicitors are delighted to invite you to our complimentary Virtual HR Forum, a monthly webinar for HR professionals and business leaders to explore key HR and employment law topics with like-minded professionals.
September’s HR Forum will focus on Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI), exploring the latest case law developments and the legal and commercial implications for employers. As expectations around workplace culture continue to evolve, HR professionals have a vital role to play in creating inclusive environments while ensuring legal compliance.
Our HR Forums are designed to support organisations in navigating the UK employment law landscape, providing expert insight, practical guidance, and the opportunity to share best practice with peers.
Hosted by Jo West (Rubicon Recruitment) and Kate Brooks (Partner & Head of HR and Employment Law Partner, Ellis Jones), this session will support HR professionals in staying compliant, confident, and prepared as flexible working shifts from a benefit into an expected default.
