Continuing your learning
Casual workers and holiday pay webinar
Since the Supreme Court ruled that accrual rates such as 12.07% cannot be used to calculate annual leave, it is more essential than ever that anyone in charge of administering holiday leave and pay understands these complex rules. This short webinar focuses on how employers can ensure compliance when paying workers with no normal hours of work such as casual workers, part year workers and workers on zero hours contracts.
Overpayments recovery workshop
The overpayment of remuneration to employees can occur for many reasons. The rules governing the right to reclaim overpayments are complex and must be managed with caution.
This course clarifies the impact of relevant case law and statutes and identifies the practical considerations for reclaiming overpayments using group discussions and exercises to create an interactive learning environment. From this, you will be able to devise best practices to take to your organisation for managing overpayments effectively and correctly and minimise the risk of them arising.
