Managing Performance in a Changing Employment Law Landscape

Managing Performance in a Changing Employment Law Landscape

With significant changes to employment rights on the horizon, many employers are asking what this means for recruitment, probation periods and managing underperformance.

This practical session will explore how employers can continue to recruit with confidence while maintaining fair and effective performance management processes. We'll look at the upcoming Employment Rights Act changes, the reduction in qualifying service for unfair dismissal claims, and the steps employers can take now to minimise risk while supporting performance and growth.

We'll cover:

• What the upcoming changes mean for employers
• Managing performance during probation periods
• Addressing underperformance confidently and fairly
• Reviewing policies and processes ahead of the changes
• Practical steps to reduce risk and support decision-making
