AUDIO – Friday Podcast: Fines for illegal workers, Court rejects agency worker’s claim, Yahoo’s performance-related pay and apprentice tax relief

This week’s HR news and analysis programme includes a special guide to new illegal worker legislation.

Louisa Peacock interviews Richard Port, partner and head of employment at Clarion Solicitors, about the introduction on 29 February of fines and possible prison terms for employers found with illegal employees on their books.

Other items include:

• the decision by the Court of Appeal not to recognise a unfair dismissal claim from an agency worker
• a wish from the CIPD for tax relief for SMEs offering apprenticeships
• and internet giant Yahoo’s plans for performance related pay (it wouldn’t talk about Microsoft).

This week’s programme is presented by Rob Moss, with John Charlton, Mike Berry and Greg Pitcher.
