With employees gaining unfair dismissal rights after just 6 months’ service, this will effectively impact new hires from July 2026 onwards.
We covered this recently at our Employer Survival Guide seminar, and many SMEs still aren’t prepared for how much this could change recruitment and onboarding.
The reality is this doesn’t need to feel overwhelming.
It’s about making small improvements:
➡️ Clearer job specs
➡️ Better interview processes
➡️ Stronger onboarding
➡️ More transparency from day one
Rushed hiring decisions and unclear expectations could become costly mistakes for growing businesses.
Is your businesses ready for this shift?
Watch this space for our next Employer Survival Guide event coming this June in North Liverpool.
