Hi,
In this bulletin we look at the new paternity leave regulations that come into force on 6th April, 2010 - but don’t panic just yet as they only relate to babies whose expected week of birth begins on or after 3rd April, 2011.
We also recommend that employers plan for the Football World Cup TV coverage and review their data protection procedures with advice from our partner, Oakview Consulting.
Finally, news of the increases to the National Minimum Wage effective from October, 2010.
As ever, your feedback is always appreciated so please do let us know if there’s anything else you would like to see in our e-Bulleting.
Kind regards,
Angela
