The Employment Rights Act 2025: A Practitioners Guide

A PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR LEGAL ADVISERS, EMPLOYERS AND HR PROFESSIONALS

A practical guide to the Employment Rights Act 2025 for UK law firms and corporate HR and legal teams. It provides detailed analysis of the major reforms—including unfair dismissal, contractual probation, guaranteed hours, shift rights, harassment prevention, collective redundancy, fire and rehire, trade union law and the Fair Work Agency—together with worked scenarios and practical implementation guidance. The guide clearly distinguishes current legal obligations from reforms awaiting commencement or further regulations.
