Gannons Solicitors

Employment Rights Bill

Please join us either in person or online for one of our focussed seminars below where we will cover all aspects of hiring and firing under the new Employment Rights Bill.

The Employment Rights Bill is about to transform the way UK businesses recruit, manage and dismiss staff

With day-one unfair dismissal protection, a new “light-touch” regime for probationary periods, and tighter restrictions on dismissals, employers face a very different legal landscape.

To help you prepare, Alex Kennedy and Jason Pradhan of Gannons will be hosting two focused seminars on the practical implications for hiring and firing.

What we'll cover:

  • Recruitment under the new regime – how to structure offers and contracts to remain flexible but compliant.
  • Probationary periods – how to use probation effectively, and what line managers need to know.
  • Lawful dismissal – how the new rules alter the process and risks when ending employment
  • Risk management – policies, documentation and steps you can take now to protect your business.
  • Your questions answered – tailored guidance on the issues that matter most to you.
