The Employment Rights Act 2025: How employers should prepare in 2026
Practical guidance for HR and benefits leaders on how to prepare confidently for rising expectations.
The Employment Rights Act 2025 passed into law in December. While implementation will
be phased, expectations for how employers support health at work are already rising.
In 2026, many HR and benefits leaders are asking the same question.
What does the new law mean for my organisation and what changes
do I need to make?
Join us for a 45 minute practical webinar exploring what the Employment Rights Act 2025 signals for employers and where risk most often shows up including absence, adjustments and sensitive employee health issues. The session is designed to help you feel clearer and more confident rather than overloaded with legal detail.
The session features expert guest speaker Claire Neal, HR and People Consultant, who works closely with HR leaders on real world people challenges. Claire will share insight into where employers are being tested in practice and what HR and benefits professionals need to prepare for when it comes to the Employment Rights Act.
What attendees will learn:
- What the Employment Rights Act 2025 means for how health support is expected to work in practice
- Where employers are most likely to face pressure or risk in 2026 and why
- How early and consistent health support reduces risk escalation across absence, adjustments and employee relations
- How menopause action plans succeed or fail based on the support that sits behind them
- Practical steps you can take now to feel more prepared and confident going into 2026
This session includes exclusive access to Peppy’s Employment Rights Act 2025 guide for HR.
Who should attend:
This session is designed for HR Directors, People Directors and Heads
of Reward and Benefits who are responsible for supporting health at
work in large or complex organisations and want practical guidance on
how to prepare confidently for 2026.
