The Employment Rights Act: Your free action plan for Employers
The Employment Rights Act introduces a range of changes over the next 18 months. The good news? Most employers do not need to do everything at once. Our free action plan cuts through the noise and shows you exactly what to prioritise now, what to prepare through 2026, and what to start planning for 2027.
What’s inside the download
This practical guide walks you through the changes step by step, so you know precisely where to focus:
- Priority actions to take now — reviewing contracts, policies, probation and sexual harassment prevention
- What to prepare during 2026 — from flexible working and sickness absence to redundancy and business change
- What’s coming in 2027 — including Day 1 unfair dismissal protection, guaranteed hours and zero-hours changes
- A simple “what good looks like” checklist to measure how ready your business already is
- Clear, jargon-free guidance you can act on straight away — no legal degree required
Who it’s for
Business owners, managers and HR leads across the Humber region and beyond who want a straightforward overview of what the Employment Rights Act means for them — without wading through pages of legislation.
Why download it now
Some of these changes are significant — Day 1 unfair dismissal protection in particular. The focus is shifting from “Can we dismiss this employee?” to “Can we demonstrate that we recruited, onboarded, managed and supported them appropriately?”
The employers who prepare early will be the ones who stay compliant and confident, rather than scrambling at the last minute. This plan helps you get the fundamentals right first.
