During our online Knowledge Bank sessions, you will have the opportunity to listen, interact and ask questions, helping you better understand the market and the issues that matter most to you.

Employment law is entering a period of significant reform in 2026 and beyond, with the introduction of the Employment Rights Act. For employers, these changes present both compliance risks and governance challenges.

This one-hour session presented by JMW Solicitors LLP will provide a clear, practical overview of the most significant employment law developments affecting the property management sector and what your organisation should be doing now to prepare. 

Key topics include:

  • Reforms likely to affect most organisations;

  • Immediate compliance starting points; and 

  • Key risk areas for boards and senior leadership teams.

Why This Matters 

The  latest reforms combined with existing employment obligations mean that organisations must be proactive in reviewing policies, contracts and procedures and keeping up to date with upcoming changes to employment practices.

Failing to act early increases the risk of:

  • Tribunal claims.

  • Reputational damage; and 

  • Governance scrutiny.

What we will cover:

This session will focus on the employment law changes most likely to affect the property management sector, including:

  • Key  legislative developments.

  • Dismissal and probation reforms.

  • Day 1 rights, including family leave and SSP.

  • Harassment prevention duties.

  • Introduction of the Fair Work Agency.

  • Zero hours contracts and guaranteed hours.
