THE CROSS-EXAMINATION – With corporate layoffs making headlines around the world, Becky Annison explores the pitfalls of handling redundancies across borders, and where companies go wrong.
Speaking with experts from the US and UK, Becky delves into the widely varying rights that employees have in different places, and the consequences that businesses should consider before reducing headcount. They discuss the surprising experience of seeing a mass layoff live-tweeted around the world and how that might affect how employees perceive their rights.
Does Elon Musk listen to The Hearing? Might he learn some lessons for the future? We hope so! Certainly everyone else will gain insights about how employers can handle the layoff process, when it can’t be avoided, with thoughtfulness and fairness.
Guests:
– Kate Bally, Director, Practical Law US Labor & Employment
– Chris Hovenden, Senior Editor, Practical Law Global Employment
– Stephanie Lopes, Chief Legal Officer, Volt
