Seminar review and comment
The September HR Briefing seminar’s principal focus was on the impact of Age Discrimination legislation on both HR roles generally, and more specifically with regard to the impact on Employee Benefit packages.
In addition to this principal focus, Truestone continued their “Hot Topics” section and provided an insight as to how Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) should perhaps now form part of the overall HR offering.
Chaired by Rory St Johnston, the seminar covered the following topics:
- Age discrimination legislation from a legal perspective
- The direct impact of age discrimination on employee benefit offerings
- Mobile Salary Saver
- Family friendly holiday polices
- Salary sacrifice
- Using CSR as a method of rewarding employees
- Engaging staff in the workplace using CSR
- Group Income Protection design issues
- Group Life and A-Day
- Pension design issues
- Overseas secondments
