Redundancy and the law: fear and economic uncertainty at
work
Wednesday 8th July 2009, 1:30pm – 4:15pm
NUT, Hamilton House, Mabledon Place,
London WC1H 9BD
It is clearer than ever before that the needs
of workers - first to protection against arbitrary closures and
second to adequate compensation should closure occur - need to be
reasserted. So what does the law say? What are the strengths and
weaknesses and how should the law be improved? What can trade
unionists do above and beyond the limitations of the legal
framework? This IER conference will heard from speakers including
Roger Jeary, director of research at Unite the union; Rob Smith,
Thompsons Solicitors; and Matt Waddup, University and College
Union. Download the full programme on Redundancy and the law from
the IER website.
