Our latest dashboard breaks down what's in the Employment Rights Bill and what's not, showing how these reforms will transform employment law.
The Employment Rights Bill was published on 10 October 2024. This introduced 28 significant reforms to a range of measures. Accompanying this, the government released a 'Next Steps to Make Work Pay' document, outlining plans for future reform. Amendments to the Bill have been made during its progress through parliament, most recently on 5 March 2025.
These sweeping changes are set to reshape the landscape of employment law. By topic, our dashboard clarifies the current legal position, how these reforms propose to change it, and what we know about the next steps in this process.
The majority of reforms are anticipated to take effect from 2026, with consultations expected to begin in 2025.
