Today we recorded our ‘Ask the Experts monthly Q&A with Sintons’ Employment Team – episode 17’ – with Angela Carver and Catherine Hope. These sessions came about due to the employment team here at Sintons having been inundated with COVID-19 and furlough questions following the introduction of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme and the ever changing government guidance.
Our session today covers the following topics:
- Can an employer hire someone to do a basic role which could easily be carried out by a furloughed worker, or should it be offered to the furloughed worker?
- Restrictive covenants
- Can an employer require employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19?
For your convenience we have also recorded this session as both a webinar and podcast, links to both are below.
