Over the last year we have been helping firms across the financial sector to get to grips with the new requirements of the Senior Managers and Certification Regime. The next wave of the regime comes into force on 7 March 2017 when the regulatory Code of Conduct will be extended to cover a much wider group of people. The regulators have recommended that firms train their staff to ensure that they understand the new Code of Conduct and how it will apply to them. If you want to make sure you are compliant we can help!
byrne.dean can train your staff on what the new Code of Conduct will entail, how it will be applied and what it means on a day-to-day basis for employees who are to be captured by a regulatory code for the first time. We run a short, interactive session that uses practical case studies to bring the Code of Conduct to life and gets people thinking about what it really means for them. We have already run successful Code of Conduct training programmes for a number of our clients. If you would like to find out more please email me at richard.thompson@byrnedean.com.

Happy hour? A conversation about alcohol and work – culture, risk and belonging
From post-deal drinks to client events and team celebrations, alcohol is woven into workplace culture. Yet when something goes wrong, it’s rarely seen as ‘just a drink’.
With new duties on employers to prevent sexual harassment, and growing attention on workplace risk and inclusion, it’s time to take a more intentional look at how alcohol shapes workplace culture – and the risks it carries.
This short, focused webinar will explore:
• How alcohol contributes to conduct, harassment and reputational risk
• The assumptions we make about what’s normal, social or expected
• How alcohol intersects with inclusion, wellbeing and boundaries
• What to think about when conducting risk assessments and looking at policies
• Practical steps to build positive connection while protecting what matters
