Old Square Chambers members to speak at UCL event “Private Law Perspectives on the Contract of Employment”.

Rebecca Tuck KC and Nadia Motraghi KC will speak at the UCL Laws event “Private Law Perspectives on the Contract of Employment” on the 7th June 2024, which was co-organised by Prof. Alan Bogg.

This conference will develop a dialogue between private lawyers and labour lawyers on theoretical and practical issues as they relate to the employment contract (broadly conceived). For historical reasons, this has been an underdeveloped dialogue in English law. The ‘autonomy’ of labour law as a discipline was based upon its rejection of the common law (and English judges), which was regarded by workers and trade unions as an instrument of class oppression.
