Webinar: The Employment Rights Act 2025's trade union and industrial relations measures
In this 45-minute webinar, partners Nick Chronias and Philip Harman cover the measures that came into effect at Royal Assent and those effective from 18 February this year. We also look at the changes making the statutory recognition process easier, explore what employers will need to do to inform workers of their right to join a trade union and give unions access to workplaces ahead of their implementation in October this year, and consider what employers can do to prepare for the changes.
