Join us in September to hear from our legal experts about key employment law decisions from the last six months and how these might impact on your practices, as well as important forthcoming legislative and Government policy developments that are relevant to HR. 

We will explore the latest progress of the Employment Rights Act 2025 with a practical, focussed session on the importance of effective management of probationary periods and how the impact of the changes to the rules which apply to unfair dismissal will be relevant for both existing employees and any new joiners from 1 July 2026 onwards. 

We are holding face-to-face seminars at our regional offices and a webinar for those who would prefer to attend remotely. Attendance in person provides an opportunity for networking and to engage in a Q&A discussion with our expert speakers.

  • Understand the latest court decisions and why they matter
  • Keep up with new government policy and what’s coming next
  • Leave with practical points you can use in your HR planning 

In our case law update, we will explore a selection of recent court decisions, looking at how they affect everyday workplace decisions. We will then turn to key legislative and policy changes, including developments linked to the Employment Rights Act. We will look at what is expected to change, likely timings, and what employers should be thinking about now. 

If you're an HR professional or senior manager who wants to stay compliant, confident, and better equipped for what’s coming next, this session is for you.

Note: These sessions are mainly for organisations using our Employment Law and HR Retained support packages, or who are members of Make UK. A limited number of places are also available for organisations not yet part of our community, who want to see the kind of support we offer. 

Be part of the conversation in person at one of our regional events - connect with peers, put your questions to our legal experts, and share insights with fellow HR leaders. 

Prefer to join remotely? You can tune into the live webinar from wherever you are.

Spaces are limited, so secure your place now.
