About this Event

Here's what attendees can expect to gain from the event:

Clarity and Confidence

You'll leave with a clear understanding of which Employment Rights Act changes affect your business and when they take effect – no legal jargon, just practical explanations.

Actionable Priorities

Know exactly what to review and update before April 2026, from contracts and handbooks to your recruitment processes and probation periods.

Risk Awareness

Understand where your current practices might leave you exposed and how to address vulnerabilities before the new rules go live.

Real-World Context

See how these changes will play out in day-to-day situations through practical examples – from handling probation dismissals to managing flexible working requests.
