For business owners and HR practitioners, 2025 is set to be a big year as we expect the Employment Rights Bill to be given Royal Assent and become an Act of law.
While the timeline is not yet confirmed, it is expected that the Bill could gain Royal Assent as early as Spring or Summer 2025. However, the majority of reforms are not anticipated to take effect until 2026, although some elements may come into force later in 2025, carrying over into the following year.

Many of the reforms bring significant change to how business will employ people and so creating a tailored plan specific to your business and how it will respond to legislative changes will be key.
