Your employment contracts, probation, absence, policies and dismissal procedures may already be unlawful.
The Employment Rights Act 2025 has changed the rules on sick pay, zero-hours contracts, unfair dismissal and sexual harassment. The changes are not coming. Most of them are already in force.
If your documents and processes have not been updated, your business is exposed
Proud to support small businesses in Tech, Performing Arts, Social Care, Logistics, Publishing and Energy sectors across London, Hertfordshire & Essex.
These are not just legal changes. Several of them are inclusion issues too.
Zero-hours contract reform disproportionately affects women, carers and workers from minority backgrounds. The sexual harassment duty goes beyond updating a policy. It requires you to actively assess and address the culture in which harassment can happen in the first place. The unfair dismissal changes, with compensation now uncapped, put a sharp spotlight on whether your probation and performance management is fair, consistent and free from bias.
At Sleek HR, we help you meet your legal obligation and build a workplace where people want to stay. That combination turns a legal obligation into a competitive advantage.
