Wednesday April 15th at 2pm: Lay-offs and short-time working because of COVID19 – how do I handle it? 

COVID-19 has affected every Irish business in one way or another. It’s an unfortunate situation that has led to difficult decisions being made. Among those decisions are whether to place employees on short-time or lay them off temporarily. Should you be faced with having to make such a decision, we want to ensure you make the right call.

That’s why we’re conducting a free e-learning session for employers. This session will last 30 minutes and, among other factors, our expert will cover:

  • What is lay-off?
  • What is short-time working?
  • Notice periods.
  • COVID-19 Pandemic Unemployment Payment.

While we hope your business retains its staff and successfully comes through COVID-19, this e-learning session will still provide the tools you need should a lay-off or short-time situation arise.
