Every hour you spend drafting contracts, Googling dismissal processes or trying to work out employment law is another hour not spent on your business.

HR is not a business owner's job!

It's meant for someone who knows the law, keeps your documentation clean and handles the difficult conversations so you don't have to.

If you've been putting off getting proper HR support, stop waiting for a crisis to force your hand.

Get in touch for a chat about what support looks like for a business your size.

October 2026 brings some of the biggest employment law changes in years.

Extended tribunal time limits, new trade union access rights, tighter rules on flexible working refusals, all landing at once.

If you're trying to keep up with this on your own, using Google and hoping for the best, you leave yourself open to mistakes.

And you'll be the one personally liable when something goes wrong.

We're offering free initial consultations this month.

Get in touch and we'll help you to identify where your gaps are.

There's no statutory right to baby loss leave (yet).

But how you respond when something devastating happens to an employee has a huge ripple effect across your business.

It's Baby Loss Awareness Week from 9-15 October.

I strongly recommend having a clear compassionate leave policy that covers pregnancy loss.

We can help you to get the right policy in place. Reach out for a free, confidential chat.

"Take a few days off" is not a welfare response.

If an employee tells you that they're struggling and that's all you do, a tribunal will ask what support you actually put in place. And you won't have a good answer.

Constructive dismissal claims often start here...

Someone flags a problem; the business does the bare minimum and the employee eventually walks.

World Mental Health Day falls on 10 October. If you don't have a proper process for when someone says they're not coping, you're exposed.

We can help you to build one.

A tribunal because you failed to make reasonable adjustments can result in uncapped compensation.

Turning down a simple request, like extra time on written tasks for someone with ADHD, is exactly the kind of refusal that gets you there.

The law doesn't ask whether the adjustment is convenient for you. It asks whether it was reasonable.

October is ADHD Awareness Month. If you haven't thought about how neurodivergent conditions show up in your workplace, now's the time.

We can help you to put a reasonable adjustments process in place that actually protects your business.

From January 2027, employees will qualify for unfair dismissal protection after just six months, not two years.

This means that anyone hired from July 2026 is covered by the new rules.

If someone on your team isn't performing, you need a documented process already underway. Verbal chats you never followed up in writing won't count. Informal warnings you didn't record won't count either.

Q4 is coming. If you've been putting off those conversations, you're running out of runway.

We can help you to set up a performance management process that actually works for a small business. Get in touch to talk it through.

The Pensions Regulator can fine you up to ÂŁ10k a day for not meeting your auto-enrolment duties.

That's not a typo. Per day.

And it's not just about enrolling people.

You need to be re-enrolling every three years, contributing the right percentages and keeping proper records.

15 September is Pension Awareness Day. A good prompt to check your compliance is actually where you think it is.

We can walk you through what needs to happen and when. Drop us a message if you want to chat confidentially.

If an employee tells you that they're struggling with their mental health and you don't act on it...

You could end up in front of a tribunal.

That's the reality.

Under the Equality Act, a mental health condition that has a long-term impact on day-to-day activities can qualify as a disability. Once you're aware of it, your legal obligations kick in.

10 September is World Su***de Prevention Day.

It's a reminder that what your team is going through doesn't stay at the door when they come to work.

We can help you to put the right frameworks in place so you're supporting your people and protecting the business at the same time.

Reach out for a confidential chat.

Getting someone's pay wrong is the fastest way to lose their trust.

And, if it happens more than once, you're looking at a constructive dismissal claim, for breaching a fundamental term of the contract.

National Payroll Week runs from 7-11 September.

If your payroll process relies on memory, manual spreadsheets or someone "just knowing" what to do, now is a good time to tighten it up.

We can help you to audit your payroll processes and make sure that the basics are locked down.

Employees who feel developed stay longer, perform better and cause fewer problems.

Ultimately, this is beneficial for your business.

If you've got junior staff and no structure around how you support them, that's a gap. Not a big one, but it compounds over time.

Structure can look like: regular check-ins, clear expectations and basic feedback. Most small businesses already do pieces of this informally; they just haven't written it down.

We can help you to put something simple in place that actually holds up.
