Free Factsheets and 7-Point Employer Action Checklist Bundle

Major employment law changes are coming in April 2026.

The Employment Rights Act 2025 introduces new rules around statutory sick pay, family leave, whistleblowing protections, and workplace governance.

For employers, this means reviewing policies, preparing managers, and making sure teams understand the changes.

Our free factsheets and 7-point employer checklist will help you prepare early and manage these changes with confidence.

Why This Matters for Your Organisation

Preparing early helps you:

  • Reduce employment risk and close policy gaps
  • Support consistent HR and management decisions
  • Improve workplace governance and record-keeping
  • Give managers clear guidance when handling staff issues

When policies and guidance are easy to access, teams can act with confidence and respond to changes quickly.

Tools such as QCS Compliance Centre help you keep employment policies up to date automatically, so teams always work from the latest guidance.

You can also access practical learning and HR resources through QCS Learning Centre, helping you understand new requirements and apply them consistently.

And when staff need quick answers, Lyra Multi helps them get trusted guidance instantly from within policies and procedures.
