Employment specialists at Davies and Partner Solicitors have organised a lunchtime seminar on Wednesday 6 July at their offices in Aztec West, to take a practical look at all the risks and benefits of employing temporary staff in the care sector.

For the seminar Davies and Partners has partnered with Bristol based Management and Safety Training Ltd.  Delegates from the care sector will be provided with all the information they need from a legal and health and safety perspective, covering the complex issue of employing temporary staff.

The seminar will give delegates the opportunity to share their workplace experiences and ask questions directly of one of the experts, whilst meeting with their peers in the care sector, over a buffet lunch.

The two specialist speakers at the seminar will be: Sarah Whittock an employment solicitor with Davies and Partners who will explain the legal implications of the status of temporary workers particularly in light of the introduction of Agency Worker Regulations 2010 and Andy Farrall Director at Management & Safety Training Ltd, who will look at competency issues faced by care home owners when using temporary workers. In particular he will give an overview of some of the training requirements you will need to consider in order to help protect your staff, your residents, and your business.

The seminar will take place on Wednesday 6 July from 12-2 pm at Davies and Partners Solicitors office at 135, Aztec West in Bristol.  Tickets cost £10 inc VAT per delegate and includes a buffet lunch.  Anyone wishing to attend should contact Sarah Whittock at Davies and Partners on email: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
