In this issue we look at some of the key employment law developments that have been taking place over the past month. In particular, we take a look at new employment referencing guidelines and the risks of not paying close attention to references obtained from new employees; the seasonal workers visa pilot, intended to be a direct replacement for the Seasonal Agricultural Workers Scheme which was closed at the end of 2013; the potential benefits to employers of enabling their employees to work less as a result of technological advances and finally we consider a recent disability discrimination case containing some practical pointers.
