In this sixth episode of the Employment Espresso Pods mini-series on the Employment Rights Act 2025, Jenny Andrews and Sian McKinley, both Of Counsel, together with Knowledge Counsel Anna Henderson, focus on the changes to fire and rehire law due to come into force in January 2027. These reforms will make it significantly more difficult and expensive to force through changes to core terms of employment, as well as having some other, perhaps unintended, implications for business strategy in relation to restructuring, post-acquisition harmonisation and outsourcing. We discuss the changes and steps employers should take now to prepare.
If you would you like to discuss what this means for your specific business before January 2027, please contact Jenny Andrews, Sian McKinley, Anna Henderson or the wider Employment team.
