Hear about the important changes to employment legislation from July

July 2026 is an important date in the roll out of the Employment Rights Act 2025.

From July 1, employers must put protective measures in place to defend themselves against enhanced unfair dismissal claims from employees that come into effect from January 1, 2027.

In this new podcast, the DDA speaks to Mike Markham, managing director of specialist GP HR services provider Cavell HR about the implications of the new HR rules for employers of workers, including part time and zero hours, minimum wage, locums and volunteers.

We discuss the key changes that will come into effect from July 1 and October 1, 2026, as well as review those that were implemented in April 2026 - particularly, the enhanced employer liabilities in the sphere of sexual harrassment in the workplace.
