Webinars

Knowledge is never static. It is always evolving.

The labour and employment laws that govern working relationships, along with the standards and policies which both define and direct the occupational culture unique to every business, are constantly in flux.

This continuous ebbs and flow of ever-changing regulations nationally, regionally and globally has a very real impact on businesses worldwide, requiring employers to adjust quickly and instate appropriate measures to ensure compliance with the latest directives.

In order to help clients effectively adapt to new conditions timely and seamlessly, L&E Global and our member firms regularly host webinars on a variety of trending legal topics that are important to clients operating both nationally and across borders.

Webinars are a great resource for employers to conveniently gain access to the latest legal developments, without the burden of travelling time and costs. At L&E Global, we believe that webinars have the added advantage of facilitating a free and open exchange of know-how, which is key to understanding the many challenges clients face when operating globally, across a variety of sectors and industries.

Date: Thursday, 18 March 2021
Time: 6 p.m. CET / 1 p.m. Eastern Time
Duration: 60 Minutes

On 16 April 2019, the EU Whistleblowing Directive was passed by the European Parliament, giving EU-based employee whistleblowers many of the same protections long enjoyed by employees in the US. What does this mean for your EU-based business? To what extent will national laws implementing the Directive create a variety of local requirements across the EU? What do you need to know and how do you as a business comply? The EU specialist speakers will discuss the implications, provide best practices and answer your questions.

• Gautier Busschaert (Van Olmen & Wynant in Belgium)
