RWK Goodman's Employment & Immigration team and Juice Recruitment are hosting their next HR Hub.

With Menopause Action Plans set to become a legal requirement for larger employees from 2027 (likely April 2027) and encouraged for all employers, now is the time for organisations to get ahead of the changes and ensure they are fully prepared.

Guest speaker: Lauren Chiren

Our guest speaker, Lauren Chiren, Founder of Women of a Certain Stage, is one of the UK's leading menopause specialists. Lauren will guide attendees through:

• What Menopause Action Plans are and what they must include.
• The steps organisations need to take before the introduction of mandatory menopause action plans in 2027.
• How to create a supportive and compliant workplace culture.
• Practical tools and resources to help you get started.

Is it possible to be fired or dismissed from a company you founded or own shares in it for alleged gross misconduct (e.g. sexual harassment, fraud etc)?
We often advise founders or director shareholders who have been accused of sexual harassment. Some opportunistic employers have framed even an objectively minor harassment accusation as gross misconduct to try to terminate the employee and relieve them of their shares as a bad leaver. We help protect their employment rights and shareholding legal rights, which are often neglected in such circumstances.
