[11 February 2026] Employment Law in Focus: The New “468 Rule” and Emerging Termination Risks

[Upcoming event: 11 February 2026, 12pm - 1pm HKT | Online]

Webinar description

Big changes are coming on 18 January 2026—and they could transform how you manage employment contracts. The new “468 Rule” will redefine what counts as a continuous contract, and the implications for compliance and risk management are too important to ignore.

On 11 February (12:00 PM – 1:00 PM HKT), join Michael Szeto, Partner at ONC Lawyers, as he cuts through the complexity and delivers the clarity you need. In this 60-minute webinar, Michael will break down the 468 Rule and share practical strategies to help you navigate its impact on employment contracts and organisational compliance.
