Ensure full regulatory compliance with this downloadable Employment Rights Act Calendar

To help you navigate the employment law changes taking place in 2026 and 2027, we’ve created a downloadable calendar that covers the key dates you need to know about as part of the Employment Rights Act 2025.

Ensure full regulatory compliance with this downloadable Employment Rights Act Calendar

The Key Dates Calendar includes:

April 2026: Understand the immediate impact of abolished waiting periods for Statutory Sick Pay and the transition of paternity and parental leave to day-one rights
October 2026: Key updates on sexual harassment prevention duties, trade union rights, and the new "reasonableness test" for flexible working requests
January 2027: Prepare for the reduction of the unfair dismissal qualifying period to six months and the removal of the statutory compensation cap.

The Employment Rights Act represents the most significant shift in UK employment law in a generation. With major changes to "day one" rights, unfair dismissal qualifying periods, and mandatory reporting, ensuring full regulatory compliance is now a top priority for every HR leader.

To help you navigate these changes with confidence, we’ve created a downloadable Employment Rights Act Calendar that covers the key dates. This essential resource breaks down the major milestones from April 2026 through October 2027, ensuring your organisation is prepared.

By downloading this calendar, you can begin auditing your current policies, training your management teams, and communicating clearly with your workforce about the positive changes ahead.
