Senior Associate
UK

I am an employment lawyer in our International HR Services Group based in London. I have a broad range of experience across contentious and non-contentious employment matters and act for clients operating across a number of sectors. With substantial in-house experience, I offer clients practical and commercial advice.

This webinar explores the blurred lines of employment in the gig economy. Nathalie Devernay, Catharina Klumpp and Kate Hurn, members of International Employment Law Group, discuss the laws surrounding this ever-evolving hot topic across France, Germany and the UK respectively and the extent to which they accommodate or hinder the implementation of less traditional working patterns and arrangements.

The webinar is chaired by Pattie Walsh, head of our Employment Practice in Asia-Pacific, who offers commentary on how this trend is affecting businesses operating across the Asia-Pacific region.
