The Working Environment Act regulates the employment contract that shapes every employment relationship. We often find that employees do not have up-to-date employment contracts, or that the contract does not comply with current regulations. In particular, there are many with invalid non-competition clauses or other deficiencies, which can make it problematic when the employee leaves. Often the employment contract is left unchanged, while the environment surrounding the employment and the workplace changes.
Topics that are important to discuss are :
- An updated employment contract
- Changes to the employment contract or supplementary agreement as a result of working from home
- IT security in the home office
- The new whistleblowing rules with examples
- Requirements the GDPR regulations entail for HR work
- Illness and absence as grounds for dismissal
- Registration and control of overtime
- Does the employee have (a right to) ergonomically adapted office equipment
- Which non-compete clauses, recruitment clauses and customer clauses are legal?
