Event Description

The Employment Rights Act 2025 is set to reshape workplace relations across the UK, introducing major changes that employers cannot afford to ignore.

From making it easier for trade unions to gain recognition, to introducing new employer obligations around informing employees of their right to join a trade union, many organisations — particularly SMEs and charities without dedicated HR teams — may not yet be prepared for what lies ahead.

Delivered by HR Hub Plus Limited, this engaging and highly practical half-day strategic workshop is designed to help employers understand the upcoming changes, reduce organisational risk, and build proactive employee relations strategies.

This workshop will provide practical, commercially focused guidance rather than legal jargon, helping business owners and managers understand:

  • What the Employment Rights Act 2025 means for employers
  • How trade union recognition processes are changing
  • How to build positive workplace relationships and communication channels
  • Managing consultation, negotiations, and workplace concerns effectively
  • How to reduce the risk of disputes and industrial action
  • Practical steps businesses should take now to prepare

The session will include:

  • Real-life case studies
  • Interactive discussions and group activities
  • Employer risk considerations
  • Practical workplace scenarios
  • Actionable takeaways for organisations

This workshop is ideal for:

  • SME owners and directors
  • Charity leaders and trustees
  • Line managers and operational managers
  • Organisations without in-house HR support
  • Businesses wanting to strengthen employee relations practices

Limited spaces are available to maintain an interactive workshop environment.
