Employment Rights Bill Update 2026 - YORK

Join us on 14 January 2026 between 8.00 am and 11.00 am at York Marina where the Torque Law team will take a focussed look at the significant changes introduced by the Employment Rights Bill and the steps that employers can be taking to best prepare their organisations and management.

While you enjoy a delicious breakfast in a beautiful venue, we will provide an insightful and detailed look at the legislative changes employers need to be aware of. There will also be ample opportunity to ask questions and share knowledge with your HR peers.

The topics for discussion will be finalised nearer the time depending upon progress of current consultation and implementation plans, but we anticipate covering:

• Day 1 unfair dismissal rights and the introduction of statutory probationary periods
• Family friendly rights and pay including protection for pregnant workers, bereavement leave, paternity and parental leave changes
• Equality law developments including enhanced duties to prevent sexual harassment and diversity action plans
• Changing contractual terms and the effective abolition of ‘fire-and-rehire’
• Flexible working plans including zero hour contracts, right to request flexible working
• Collective redundancy thresholds and compensation
• Trade Union reform
• Enhanced whistleblower protections
• Pay arrangements – including SSP and tips
