Howden Employment Webinar (10/09/20)

2020 has presented its fair share of challenges to usual business practices, and one casualty for Howden Employee Benefits & Wellbeing has been the inability to stage the highly popular, fun, and informative Howden Employment Seminars so far this year.

So we thought it was high time that we (temporarily) replaced the physical events with a topical webinar looking at UK employment issues.  This event will feature views and insights on the following important subjects:

• Employment Law
• The Future of the Workplace
• Pensions
• Employee Benefits

And the speakers are already very familiar to our loyal seminar audiences.  Employment Lawyer Matt Jenkin will provide useful insights on this always important topic, whilst Howden’s Employee Benefits thought-leader Steve Herbert will provide his usual fast-paced commentary on relevant current events. 

Full details of the webinar and how to book a place(s) are shown below:
