Welcome to the April edition of our Employment Law Bulletin
The Employment Rights Bill is now at Committee Stage in the
House of Lords having undergone some significant amendments in the
House of Commons in March. In our first article this month we keep
readers up to date with amendments to the Bill which will have key
impacts on employers when they come into force.
We report on the EAT judgment in Campbell v Sheffield Teaching
Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and another which considered
whether an employee's discriminatory conduct was in the course
of employment and whether the employer had taken all reasonable
steps to prevent racial discrimination taking place, including by
providing recent equality training.
We also include an article of interest to our many readers who are
employers in the education sector focusing on key considerations to
reduce the risk of employment tribunal claims.
We are busy planning our annual Employment Law Conference
for Charities which takes place in Leeds on 19
June 2025. Our theme this year is "Changing
landscapes in the modern workplace" and the day will offer
useful insights and practical guidance on a range of new
developments in employment law and practice. Please click on the

there!
