This session will be a practical refresher on fair employment compliance in Northern Ireland, prompted by a recent prosecution for breaches of monitoring requirements. Our team will explain the day to day legal requirements and how to embed proportionate processes that stand up to scrutiny.
The session will cover:
- Core obligations for employers: ECNI registration, annual monitoring returns and Article 55 reviews.
- Operational best practice: From collecting and storing monitoring data to the documentation you need to evidence compliance.
- Risks and actions: The consequences of non‑compliance and practical steps to reduce regulatory and reputational exposure.
- Tricky scenarios in practice: workforce challenges such as inter group transfers / secondments, managing headcount without a local entity, proportionate oversight for hard-to-classify roles, structuring short-term engagements, and responses to compliance breaches.
You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and to network with peers over breakfast.
