ERA Explained podcast – our new podcast designed to drill into the practicalities of implementing the key reforms.

The Employment Rights Act 2025 introduces significant change for employers and, with reforms continuing to evolve, it’s not always clear what action needs to be taken on the ground. That’s where ERA Explained comes in.

Through a series of short, practical podcasts, our employment law specialists break down the key reforms and what they mean for employers. Each episode is designed to focus on what matters most – the steps organisations should be taking now to manage risk, stay compliant and plan ahead.

Whether you are a HR leader, in-house lawyer or business decision-maker, ERA Explained offers a straightforward (and entertaining?) way to stay on top of the changes.

Podcast episodes will feature below as released and will be available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform so subscribe now!

In the first episode of our ERA Explained podcast, Kate Redshaw and Katie Wooller discuss how employers should approach probationary periods when the qualifying period for unfair dismissal drops from two years to six months on 1 January 2027. In this short, bite-sized episode, they also highlight the risks for employers, and the practical steps organisations should be thinking about now – from updating contracts and internal processes through to proactive management of senior hires.
