We are delighted to invite you to attend our Webinar Series for 2025.
This webinar is COMPLIMENTARY, but registration is essential.
Adare and Linea invite you to a two-part webinar series that will focus on changes in Irish employment law.
Our Webinar Agenda is as follows:
Webinar: Key Employment Legislation Changes in 2025 – The Year in Review
Date: Thursday, 6th November 2025
Time: 11.00 am – 11.45 am
Location: online via Zoom
With a change in government at the turn of the year and ongoing international trade negotiations, 2025 has been most notable for the number of initiatives that have been paused amid rising business costs, reviews of onerous regulation and global geopolitical developments.
While the new government has yet to bring any new employment legislation into effect in 2025, understanding how associated policy developments affect your Organisation is essential for compliance, risk management, and strategic workforce planning.
To support Organisations with their compliance activity this year, Adare and Linea invite you to a two-part webinar series that will focus on changes in Irish employment law.
The first webinar in the series will be held on Thursday, 6th November 2025 and will look at the most significant employment law developments in 2025, including:
- National Minimum Wage Rate 2025
- Pause in Expansion of Statutory Sick Pay
- Deferral of Living Wage Plan
- Corporate Sustainability Reporting – Paused
- Gender Pay Gap Information Act 2021 – Employee Threshold 50+ in 2025
- Seasonal Employment Permits Pilot Scheme
- Minimum Wage Changes Under SEO/EROs
- EU (Gender Balance on Boards of Certain Companies) Regulations 2025
- Auto-enrolment Scheme – My Future Fund: Commencing in January 2026
This webinar is designed for HR professionals, people managers, and compliance officers. Whether you are starting out in HR or an experienced manager, you will gain valuable insights that can immediately be applied to your Organisation.
We have dedicated the last 10 minutes of the webinar to a Q&A.
Join 100’s of HR practitioners and keep your HR knowledge and skills up-to date.
