Big changes are coming to UK employment law, and 2026 is set to be a pivotal year. From stronger union powers and restrictions on fire and rehire practices to enhanced harassment prevention duties and other key reforms, the Employment Rights Bill (ERB) will reshape how businesses hire, manage, and support their people.

The road ahead will require careful planning and proactive action.

In this webinar, Catherine Watt, ECA’s Director of HR and Employee Relations, will be joined by Worknest’s Annabelle Carey, Head of Organisation Development Services, and Lorna Gemmell, Employment Law and HR Training Manager. Together, they guide ECA Members through the key reforms, helping you review your systems, map out next steps, and ensure your business is ready for the changes ahead.
