HR & Employment Issues – inc Safer Recruitment

This programme focuses on the HR, employment and people issues that regularly arise in general practice.

About this event

The web workshop also includes a look at employment models for PCN staff and liability implications for practices – this includes TUPE and or where necessary redundancy – when practices are looking at merging, partnering or taking over a practice.
