Cambridge: Navigating change - annual employment and immigration update

Navigating change: Birketts’ Employment and Immigration Update 2025

With major legal reforms on the horizon and economic uncertainty continuing to challenge employers, staying ahead has never been more important.

Join us for one of our popular annual employment and immigration law updates, designed specifically for HR professionals to equip you with what you need to know. This year’s session will focus on the transformational changes expected under Employment Rights Bill, including the timetable for implementation. We will also review the most significant legal developments from the past 12 months, including new statutory entitlements and some important case law developments for HR practitioners to note.

Topics for 2025 will include:

• Day one rights under the Employment Rights Bill, including SSP and unfair dismissal
• Fire and re-hire – when will this still be permitted?
• New restrictions on the use of non-disclosure provisions (NDAs) in settlement agreements
• Protections for zero/low hours workers and the new right to a ‘guaranteed hours contract’
• Changes to statutory trade union recognition and industrial action rules
• Clashing beliefs in the workplace and the meaning of ‘sex’ in the Equality Act 2010
• Redundancy consultation obligations
• Latest immigration updates for employers

Our expert speakers will guide you through the changes, what they mean for your organisation, and how to prepare. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions and gain practical insights from our employment and immigration law specialists.

Places are strictly limited and will be offered on a first-come, first served basis. Please note, we can only accept a maximum of four bookings per organisation at each event.

The cost for this event is £120 +VAT per person, to include refreshments and lunch.
