During our Annual Update seminar on 27 April 2016, we discussed some of the legislative changes that employers should look out for over the next 12 months. One of these was the Trade Union Bill having now received Royal Assent.
In this issue we also look at the EU’s Trade Secrets Directive and how this could impact on whistleblowers in the UK, as well as the Government’s call for evidence on the use of non-compete clauses.
