Details

The SK Labour Update 2022 will be held in two half-day webinars. Session 1 will take place April 26 and Session 2 will take place May 5.

Workplace rules and practices evolve continuously. As an employer you need to be aware of new developments in labour and employment law, regardless of how many employees you have. Effective human resource strategies depend on it.

This webinar series will take place over two half-day morning sessions and will inform you of recent developments in the law and help you learn how to deal successfully with the issues they raise. The MLT Aikins Labour Update is designed for both unionized and non-unionized employers. We’ll get you up-to-date on changes to the rules and help you develop proactive human resources policies.

On the Agenda

Each day will start at 8:30 a.m. (SK time) and will run until noon. There will be a 10 minute break between each topic.
