Hakim webinar addresses furlough and government relief schemes

Furloughing staff, government relief schemes, NHS England funding and overcoming stress were all on the agenda during Hakim Group’s second webinar on Thursday (March 26).

Introducing the session, Imran Hakim, CEO of Hakim Group, said: ‘Our speakers’ insight should hopefully help you focus your strategy and the way you are thinking about the challenges we are currently facing.’

Trishna Modessa-Parekh, employment advisor to Hakim Group, then highlighted updates in employment law and furlough.

Speaking during the webinar, Modessa-Parekh said: ‘The topic on everyone’s mind at the moment is furlough and the government’s job retention scheme. While the measures, on the face of it, might seem generous and great the guidance we’ve had so far has unfortunately not been as great.’
