Employment Law and Mediation Update

the latest Employment Law developments including the Government's plan to introduce an 'employment charter'.

2011 will also see continued increase in the use of mediation. This session will cover the recent developments within mediation and provide an outline of what to expect in the world of mediation in 2011. It will also cover mediation advocacy.
