October brought the next wave of Employment Rights Act (ERA) 2025 updates, so now is a good time to look back on what’s already been implemented, what’s recently changed, and what’s still to come.
Our Patron Citation has created a FREE guide: The Employment Rights Act 2025 – October 2026 update and review. It takes you through all of the above and what your business needs to have in place to stay compliant and penalty-free.
Here’s what changed in October:
Tribunal claims – employees now have six months, rather than three, to bring a claim
Sexual harassment – employers must take “all reasonable steps” to prevent sexual harassment of their employees, including from third parties
Trade unions – new rights and protections for unions and their members
Adult social care – plans to create a new Adult Social Care (ASC) Negotiating Body to establish a Fair Pay Agreement (FPA) for the social care sector
Citation’s HR and Employment Law experts support thousands of UK businesses to stay compliant, reduce risk, and save time so you can focus on running your business confidently.
