AI is changing the workplace - but are your people, policies and practices keeping pace?

From employees using ChatGPT, Claude and Microsoft Copilot at work to AI-assisted recruitment and increasingly automated ways of working, artificial intelligence is already changing how businesses manage people, make decisions and improve productivity.

At the same time, employers are navigating significant changes in employment law and a workplace where expectations around flexibility, wellbeing, performance and culture continue to evolve. Beyond the Handbook: Employment Law, AI & the Future of Work is a practical morning event designed to help business owners, leaders and HR professionals understand what these changes mean for their organisation - and what they should be doing now to prepare.

Hosted in partnership with Higgs LLP and IceBlue, the event will combine expert employment law guidance with practical insight into using AI safely and effectively in business.

The aim is simple: to help employers embrace the opportunities presented by new technology while protecting their people and their organisation from unnecessary risk.


Hear from the experts:

'Employment Law: What Employers Need to Know' - Jonathon Forrester, Partner and Head of Employment Law, Higgs LLP

With employment legislation continuing to evolve, Higgs LLP will provide a practical update on the changes employers need to understand and prepare for.

'AI in the Workplace: Opportunity, Risk & Responsible Use' - Jennifer Long, CEO, IceBlue Limited

AI tools are finding their way into businesses at extraordinary speed - sometimes with the knowledge of employers and sometimes without it. This session will look at what responsible AI adoption means in practice and some of the questions businesses should be asking as tools such as ChatGPT, Claude and Microsoft Copilot become part of everyday working life.


Why attend?

Whether you're already using AI across your business, beginning to experiment with tools or simply trying to understand it all, the morning will help you identify the opportunities, understand the risks and decide what action you need to take next.
