Employment Law is Changing – Are You Ready?
The Employment Rights Bill is now confirmed to roll out in stages between now and late 2027, introducing some of the most wide-reaching reforms in decades. For employers, this means continual legal updates, with new changes expected every few months, rather than in a single sweep.
Keeping pace with this level of legislative change, while also running a business, is a serious challenge. But falling behind could expose your business to significant risk.
The Risks of Falling Behind
• Tribunal Claims: Updates to dismissal rights, sick pay, and redundancy protections could make errors expensive.
• Reputational Damage: Non-compliance sends the wrong message to staff, clients, and regulators.
• Confused Management: Managers working with outdated policies risk inconsistency, grievances, and legal claims.

At Breedon Consulting, we’ve launched a two-year service to guide businesses through the Bill’s full implementation, now until 2027. We track, explain, and implement every change for you, so you stay compliant without lifting a finger.
This includes major confirmed changes, such as:
• April 2026: Day-one paternity leave, extended SSP, whistleblowing protections, and collective redundancy changes.
• October 2026: Legal duties to prevent harassment (including from third parties), a ban on fire-and-rehire tactics, and extended tribunal claim windows.
• 2027: Day-one unfair dismissal rights, new protections for zero-hours workers, mandatory menopause and gender pay action plans, and statutory bereavement leave.

• Live contract & handbook updates aligned with each legal milestone.
• Short explainer videos or webinars to help you and your managers understand what’s changed—and what to do.
