In House Employment Lawyers Club

IHELC meets quarterly at Lewis Silkin's offices and a pack of discussion materials is circulated in advance of each session. There is no charge for membership or attendance at any of the meetings. We also organise occasional social events.

Membership is by invitation only and restricted to in-house lawyers who either specialise exclusively in or undertake a significant proportion of employment work.

Benefits of membership include:

High-level roundtable discussions

These quarterly meetings on hot topics of employment law, over either breakfast or lunch, are IHELC’s core activity. The meeting dates for 2018 are:

• Thursday 22 March - 9.00am - 10.30am
• Wednesday 13 June - 12.30pm - 2.00pm
• Thursday 27 September - 9.00am - 10.30am
• Thursday 29 November - 4.30pm - 6.00pm followed by drinks

We don’t fix the topics for these meetings too far in advance so as to retain flexibility to cover the most relevant and timely issues.  

Email employment law alerts

After each meeting, members receive a document summarising the key points and issues that were discussed. This is in addition to all our regular Lewis Silkin employment law publications.

A free place at our employment law training events

We have a full programme of seminars running throughout the year covering key employment law related topics and club members benefit from a free place at these events.
