Lunch & Learn: Contractors, Trial Periods & Everyday Employment Pitfalls

Join us for a practical lunchtime session with RYHR covering the employment issues that trip up tech businesses most often. We will be upstairs in the Mezzanine at Hope Kitchen - bring your lunch or grab something from the Cafe downstairs.

We’ll walk through:

  - Contractors – the Gateway and Common Law tests, and how to correctly apply the new law
  - Trial periods – what still works and what doesn’t
  - Recruitment – a couple of practical tips that reduce risk early
  - Performance issues – how to handle them cleanly
  - When an employee runs out of sick leave – what your options actually are

This is a no-fluff, real-world discussion designed for founders, managers, and anyone who hires or manages people in the tech sector.
