Employment Rights Act 2025 Becomes Law

The Employment Rights Bill officially became law after receiving Royal Assent on 18 December 2025, becoming the Employment Rights Act 2025.

The Act introduces significant changes to UK employment legislation, including amendments to the Employment Rights Act 1996.

The reforms aim to strengthen employment protections and improve working conditions across the UK.

Changes introduced by the Act will be implemented gradually, with most reforms expected to take effect during 2026 and 2027.

Workers and employers should familiarise themselves with the new legislation and the timetable for its implementation.
