People Matter: Unfair dismissal
During this webinar, Judy Roy and Maya Segas cover Unfair dismissal – what the changes in the Employment Rights Act 2025 mean for higher education institutions.
With the Employment Rights Act 2025 now in force and changes scheduled for implementation in 2026 and 2027, including the reduction of the unfair dismissal qualifying period to six months, higher education institutions are facing a shifting risk environment.
In this webinar, our speakers examine implications of the reduction in the unfair dismissal qualifying period for probation procedures, performance management and HR processes across the sector, as well as considering the practical steps institutions should take now to prepare.
