    Employment law podcast: The Employment Rights Bill – key takeaways for employers

    In our latest employment law podcast, managing associate Natalie Edwards and associates Dermot Neligan and Eirini Haidemenos discuss the Government's new Employment Rights Bill published on 10 October 2024, which has been described as a 'once in a generation' overhaul of employee rights. The Stephenson Harwood team discuss what employers need to be aware of, including changes to protections against unfair dismissal, entitlement to statutory sick pay, and rights for new parents. Many of the Government's proposals require further consultation, and several of the more major changes will take effect "no sooner than Autumn 2026". We recommend that clients listen to the podcast and review their policies and procedures considering the proposed changes. Please also keep an eye out for further advice that the Stephenson Harwood team will publish once we have clarity on the new legislation.

    Navigating inheritance laws in the United Arab Emirates ("UAE") can be complex, especially for expatriates and those unfamiliar with Islamic Sharia law principles. For employers, the subject matter was brought into greater focus with the issuance of UAE Ministerial Decision no. 720/2023 prescribing employers' obligations to distribute end-of-service gratuity entitlement following an employee's death. In our latest podcast, we share the recording of a webinar we co-hosted on 5 December 2023 with the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) Authority, which oversees one of the largest commercial free trade zone areas in the UAE.
