The Employment Rights Act Is Now in Effect: How to Stay Compliant

With the Employment Rights Act 2025 changes now live, employers must ensure their policies, procedures and people management practices are fully compliant. These developments are already affecting many organisations, with updates to Statutory Sick Pay, increased enforcement under the new Fair Work Agency, and new day‑one family‑friendly rights prompting reviews of absence management, contracts and internal policies.

Staying compliant while maintaining productivity can be challenging, and without expert support, keeping up with legislative change can quickly become complex and time-consuming.
