Join Employment Lawyers Louise Attrup and Michael Kerrigan for an interactive presentation and roundtable discussion exploring the key elements of the Employment Rights Act 2025 that employers need to know and how organisations are adapting in practice.
As the changes continue to take effect, businesses are reviewing policies, updating processes and navigating new employment obligations. This session will help you understand not only the legal requirements, but also the practical realities of implementation and the lessons employers have learnt so far.
Designed for SME business owners, senior leaders and HR professionals, the session provides an opportunity to gain expert guidance, benchmark your approach against other organisations and leave with greater confidence that your business is making informed decisions.
In addition to a recap of the key reforms, we’ll explore emerging trends, common challenges and any further developments, helping you stay ahead of changes that could impact your people, operations and risk management.
