About this event

The event is exclusively for active CIPD members. Registrations will be monitored.

Periods of regional disruption or conflict can create complex legal and operational challenges for employers and HR professionals. Organisations must balance their duty of care to employees with compliance to evolving labour laws, government directives, and business continuity requirements.

This webinar, delivered by our partners Clyde & Co, will provide HR and business leaders with practical guidance on navigating key labour law considerations during times of conflict. The session will explore employer obligations around employee safety, remote or cross-border working arrangements, leave and absence management, communication responsibilities, and responding to rapidly changing government regulations.

Participants will gain insight into how organisations can remain legally compliant while supporting their workforce with clarity, fairness, and compassion in uncertain circumstances.


The session will cover:

  • Employer duty of care and employee safety obligations
  • Managing remote, displaced, or cross-border workers
  • Leave, absence, and emergency workforce policies
  • Compliance with government directives and labour regulations
  • Best practice communication with employees during crises
