As the end of 2020 approaches, the William Fry Employment & Benefits team is releasing a 3 part series of short videos. These will be released in December 2020 and January 2021 and will give viewers a quick guide to past and future developments in employment law.

In part 1 above, Jeff Greene, Partner, reflects on the key developments in Irish employment law generally in 2020.  The topics include:

  • COVID19
    • TWSS/EWSS
    • Redundancy
    • The Work Safely Protocol
  • Sectoral Employment Orders
  • Legislative Updates
  • Employment Status (employee vs self-employed contractor)

 We have written more detailed articles on these topics throughout the year, and these can be found under the News and Insights tab on our website.

If you would like any advice on any of these issues, please contact Jeff Greene, Ailbhe Dennehy or your usual William Fry contact.
