You need to take URGENT action. NOW. This Bill terrifies leaders - here's why.

You’ve heard the headlines;

↳ NDAs will no longer silence harassment victims

↳ Day-one protection for unfair dismissal

↳ Larger payouts and longer consultation periods

This isn't a gentle nudge - it’s a seismic shift in how workplaces operate.

Here are your gaps;

❌ Many leaders still rely on old scripts and "play it safe" checklists - no legal review, no leadership mindset.

❌ Managers assume “we’ll deal with it later” - thinks six-month claim window gives them breathing room.

❌ Everyone thinks "it’s too expensive to fix," when the tribunal backlog is already exploding

What keeps me awake?

It’s not the new rights.

It’s the new risks for unprepared businesses.

Here’s what that actually looks like;

❌ A senior manager tries fire-and-rehire without proper consultation, now auto unfair after April 2026.

❌ A sexual harassment complaint slips through because NDAs masked it - now void.

❌ A mum returning from maternity is dismissed after 5 weeks - now protected from the day she returns.

These aren’t hypotheticals.

These risks are happening now.

Your choice today:

✅ Pretend nothing’s changing - and roll the dice.
🚨 Or act now, with urgency, leadership, and legal clarity.

If you’re still saying “we’ll adjust after Royal Assent”

you've already created the risk.

Ask yourself;

➡︎ Have you reviewed your NDA & settlement clauses since July 2025?

➡︎ Is every departure document cross-checked for breach of the new fire-and-rehire rules?

➡︎ Are your redundancy and dismissal processes mapped to the new day‑one rights?

➡︎ Do your training sessions cover the widener recognition period - and six-month claim window?

➡︎ Can your leadership team identify risks before they land in tribunal?

This Bill remains powerful, but it’s only as effective as your readiness.

📅 If you'd like a confidential review of your key processes, drop me a direct message, or book a call with me here https://lnkd.in/ekJy93eC

If this post made you uncomfortable - it should.

I'll be running a free live workshop for leaders, management and internal HR professionals.

It’s not training. It’s a risk briefing for anyone who manages people.
Details soon.
