Employment law developments, tailored for public sector employers.

Employment Law in Ireland’s Public Sector is an annual event run by Legal Island and the award-winning Employment Team at ByrneWallace LLP.

On 8th May, we will focus on the key areas of development over the last 12 to 18 months that are of particular importance to public sector employers.

Why is this event important for you?

The public sector environment is highly regulated and subject to a higher level of scrutiny by the Courts and the WRC in employment and industrial relations claims. This is a time of change for the public sector, with various developments to consider. Changes require HR managers to stay up to date with employment law developments and ensure that procedures and practices are fit for purpose. This, in turn, will reduce the risk of claims, awards and reputational damage. You will also save a huge amount of time and money.

This event is specifically designed with public sector organisations in mind. The experts from the ByrneWallace LLP Employment Law Team highlight risks and best practices that will help you avoid litigation and save time, money and lots of stress.

Recognised nationally and internationally as a top-tier Irish law firm, ByrneWallace LLP is one of Ireland’s leading advisors to the public sector, advising many government departments, local government, regulatory bodies, and semi-state and public sector organisations including universities, health, education, justice, utilities, environmental, energy, agriculture, forestry, fisheries, marine, culture, transport, tourism and industry bodies.

For over 50 years, the firm has been advising the public sector on their full range of legal needs, and during this time has developed a deep understanding of the environment in which they work, their key challenges and requirements. The firm has a strong culture of excellence and accountability, which resonates with the public sector, and invests substantial resources in providing the highest standard of service, insights and advice to meet, anticipate and exceed their clients’ evolving needs.
