Organised by The CIPD Branch in Chiltern
Join the Chilterns Solo HR Group to share challenges, ideas & experiences with others working in stand-alone HR roles within the local area
This is a face-to-face discussion group, where attendees pick the ‘hot topics’ to discuss.
If you have any issues at work that you would like to discuss and get the groups feedback and experience on or perhaps with the change of government you have other legislative issues that you would like to discuss?
Anything discussed in the group of course is confidential.
