SUMMARY:The PIMFA HR Briefing 2024- Session 4: AI and Employment Law: Navigating the future of work
DESCRIPTION:AI has already begun changing the way we work\, and further change in the coming years is inevitable.  The FCA and PRA have outlined their strategic approaches to AI regulation\, focusing on promoting safe and responsible use while fostering innovation. Meanwhile\, the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) has indicated that it will be focussing on the use of AI in recruitment and developing solutions to address bias and discrimination in AI systems. \nThe Labour government has also indicated it will be considering how to promote best practice in safeguarding against threats to privacy through surveillance technology\, spy ware and discriminatory algorithmic decision-making.  While AI will no doubt open a number of opportunities for employers\, its increased use will also come with risks\, and it is important that employers grapple with these from an early stage. \nIn November’s HR forum\, we explore what AI means for HR and employment law with Clyde & Co’s employment team. \n Key topics will include: \nThe regulators’ strategies for the regulation of AI in financial services \nAI in HR procedures – hiring\, day-to-day work\, and redundancies and dismissals \nRisks in relation to discrimination and data protection \nRecent cases and lessons learnt \nWhat does this mean for HR going forward? \nDon’t miss this opportunity at 11am on 19 November 2024 to gain valuable insights and get your questions answered by Chris Holme and Shadia El Dardiry. \n

SUMMARY:PIMFA Webinar: What Senior Managers Need To Know
DESCRIPTION:FCA fines against firms and individuals totalling £87 million so far in 2024 indicate a serious knowledge gap among senior managers in financial services firms. They are often unprepared and overwhelmed to interpret and respond appropriately to the volume and complexity of regulatory change for which they are responsible. \nIn this FREE 60-minute webinar\, experts from CCL Academy unpack what you\, as a newly appointed or current senior manager\, need to know to make better and more informed decisions to meet the rising expectations of staff\, your board\, and the regulator. \nKey discussion points include: \n1. What recent FCA fines tell us what senior managers need to learn in 2025. \n2. The three most common knowledge gaps found among senior managers which expose their firms to severe risks and uncertainties. \n3. How smart leaders build the breadth and depth of their regulatory knowledge to make better holistic decisions for their firm.
