This first edition will bring answers on managing Human Resources in the context of:
COVID-19 - Furlough scheme extensions, redundancy, contract termination, HR changes, etc.
BREXIT - Immigration laws, visas, new employment rules, VIE & internships, etc.
HOW IS IT ORGANISED?
The French Chamber will match the participants with the most relevant expert depending on the kind of information they are trying to access. Each participant will have up to four 20-minute individual meetings with experts.
