The U.K. government’s “landmark employment reforms will kick in within months,” Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner announced in a statement on the publication of a roadmap for the U.K.’s Employment Rights Bill on July 1. The Bill, which will affect millions of workers, is expected to pass into law this year, and compliance managers are advised to hone their understanding of HR and equality issues in preparation. Some rules will change the day the Bill is passed, with further developments scheduled for April and October 2026.
