What are the essential parts of employment law that you need to be aware of? What are the essentials that you need to have in place? What rates of pay will you have to pay? How do you recruit the right people? How do you get your new starters to add value quickly? How can you manage a difficult employee? How can you get the best out of your employees?
Teas & coffees will be provided.
*There is a cancellation fee with this ticket*

Join us to celebrate International Women’s Day 2021 #ChooseToChallenge #IWD2021
About this Event
A challenged world is an alert world and from challenge comes change.
Individually, we’re all responsible for our own thoughts and actions – all day, every day.
We can choose to challenge and call out gender bias, discrimination and stereotypes.
We can choose to seek out and celebrate women’s achievements.
Collectively, we can create an inclusive and more gender-equal world.
From challenge comes change, so let’s all choose to challenge.
International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.
The day also marks a call to action for accelerating women’s equality.
International Women’s Day (IWD) has occurred for well over a century, with the first IWD gathering in 1911 supported by over a million people. Today, IWD belongs to all groups collectively everywhere. IWD is not country, group or organization specific.

This practical session goes beyond theory, drawing on ChamberCustom’s first-hand experience of supporting businesses through customs audits. We’ll share lessons learned from the field, explain what auditors focus on, and show how businesses can spot and fix compliance gaps before they become issues.
By the end of the session, you will have a clearer understanding of how to conduct effective internal reviews, how to avoid the common pitfalls we see during audits, and how to embed a culture of compliance across your organisation. The session is ideal for businesses that want to reduce risk, strengthen their customs processes, and feel fully prepared when the auditors arrive.
Speakers: Marika Majewska, Customs Development Executive, ChamberCustoms Mitch Perks, Deputy Director of Trade Services, British Chambers of Commerce Emmanuel Gianquitto, Head of Consultancy and Training, ChamberCustoms
