With the darker days of Autumn just ahead, you could be forgiven for feeling a bit depressed at this time of year. So why not lift the gloom by joining us for another fun and informative Jelf Employment Seminar, in yet another superb venue?
Once again we have sought out a panel of true topic experts to update our delegates on important employment issues. Topics covered at this event will include:
- An Employment Law review and update
- An insight in how to recruit well, and build motivated and effective teams
- The new Independent Assessment Service (IAS)
- The introduction of medical intervention tax relief in 2014
- A pensions auto-enrolment update & possible future changes in this area
We also have a great venue for our delegates to enjoy. Manchester’s Museum of Science and Industry hosts a range of galleries linked to the region’s past including aircraft, the Liverpool and Manchester railway, The Making of Manchester, and even the opportunity to walk through a Victorian sewer! And to make the event extra special, Jelf are providing all delegates with a free visit to the 4D cinema immediately after the event. The museum is, of course, centrally located and easily accessible by all forms of public transport.

Full agenda
09:00 Registration, coffee and networking
09:45 Welcome
09:50 Human Capital: “The 6 Keys to a Winning Teamâ€
We are delighted to welcome top business coach, author, and professional speaker Andy Gwynn to our Autumn seminar program.
This session will focus on how to enrol, inspire, & lead your team to massive R.O.H.I (Return On Human Investment). Andy believes that most businesses make employment decisions based on candidate skills, but then sack the same individual because of their attitude. This session will aim to help you manage this important dynamic in your organisation. Powerful case studies will provide evidence of the value of this approach. A session of importance to all our delegates.
Speaker: Andy Gwynn, Business Coach, U-Can (UN) Ltd
10:30 Break/ Refreshments/ Networking
10:50 Employment Law: “Another year of changeâ€
The last few months have seen major changes to employment law, and further adjustments lurk just over the horizon. So now is an excellent time for Matt to provide delegates with an overview as to how these alterations may impact on employers.
Topics covered include employment tribunal fees, unfair dismissal compensation cap, pre-termination negotiations, employee shareholder status, pre-claim conciliation, changes to holiday entitlement and amendments to flexible working
Speaker: Matt Jenkin, Employment Partner, Harrison Clark Rickerbys
11:20 Employee Benefits: “One door closes…â€
As the long running subject of Auto-Enrolment finally reaches it’s end-game, Steve will look at the progress of this initiative and what the future may hold for employers.
Other topics will include the introduction of the Independent Assessment Service and tax breaks for medical interventions, both of which employers will be able to access in 2014. Employee engagement, communications, and an update on the future of Childcare Vouchers are also included.
Speaker: Steve Herbert, Head of Benefits Strategy, Jelf Employee Benefits
