    Time: 11am – 12pm

    Location: Online, Microsoft Teams

    January 28th

    The Employment Rights Bill has just received Royal Assent and will become the Employment Rights Act 2025 – the most significant overhaul of UK employment law in over a decade. As we enter 2026, employers face a complex landscape of phased implementation that will fundamentally change how businesses manage their workforce.

    Why this webinar is critical for your business:

    From April 2026 onwards, sweeping changes will begin rolling out across 2026 and 2027, affecting every aspect of employment from day one rights to dismissal procedures. Whether you employ five people or five hundred, these reforms will impact your policies, contracts, costs, and risk exposure.

    Who should attend:

    • Business owners, partners, and directors
    • HR professionals
    • Line managers with hiring/dismissal responsibilities

    Why attend:

    We’ll break down the complex legislation into practical steps you can take, covering:

    • Unfair dismissal
    • Day one rights
    • Zero-hours contracts
    • Statutory sick pay
    • Flexible working
    • Fire and rehire
    • Harassment prevention
    • Trade union access

    You’ll leave with clear priorities for reviewing your contracts and policies, and risk management strategies to protect your business from costly tribunal claims.

This ensures we cover the issues that matter most to you and your business. (If you submit your questions after the deadline, we will contact you with answers after the event).
