DISCUSSION TOPIC: 2017 LABOUR LAWS OUTLOOK

Date: 25 January, 2017 | Time: 07.30am - 10.00am

Venue: Intercontinental Hotel, Lusaka

Following the enactment of the New Labour Laws in 2016, a number of issues and challenges have been identified. Implementing the new Labour Laws without the supporting Statutory Instruments to clarify a number of hanging or contradicting labour laws has proven to be a challenge for many if not all Employers. Now Employers must give a reason for terminating a contract, what about the issue of giving a notice?

What should the long awaited SI contain? How many subsequent short term contract renewals should the employer make before deeming it a permanent contract?

At this Business Breakfast, come and listen to the Minister of Labour as she engages you on these and many challenges faced by employers during the implementation of the 2015 - 2016 New Labour Laws.

The Minister will discuss among others;

1. Overview of 2016 Labour law changes

b.   The position of Employers

c.   The position of Employee unions

d.   The position of Government

2. 2017 Labour Laws outlook

a.   Expected and anticipated 2017 New Labour Laws Statutory Instruments (SI)
