Don't currently recognise a trade union? These changes could still affect your business. 🚨📝

From 30 October 2026, employers will have a new duty to provide workers with a written statement explaining their right to join a trade union, alongside their statement of employment particulars.

Wider reforms will also strengthen trade union access rights and protections for representatives and workers taking protected industrial action.

So, what can employers do now? 🤔

Review your onboarding documentation, contracts, policies and employee handbook. Think about how you'll provide the new statement to workers and who would manage a trade union access request if one was received.

It's also important that managers understand the changes and feel confident responding appropriately if trade union matters arise.

This morning, Hayley went to drumBEAT Marketing's Butties, Brains & Business event to deliver her talk, "Sexual Harassment in the Workplace and Your Duty", looking at what employers need to know and, importantly, what they can be doing now to prepare. 📝

With the strengthened duty to prevent sexual harassment coming into effect on 30th October, Hayley shared practical steps businesses can take to be proactive, from understanding workplace risks and listening to employees, to reviewing policies, training and the wider workplace culture.

It was great to see so much discussion around such an important topic, with plenty of questions and conversations about what prevention looks like in practice.

A big thank you to the drumBEAT Marketing team and to everyone who joined the conversation this morning! 🧡

With the October 2026 sexual harassment prevention changes getting closer, now is the time for employers to look beyond policies and consider what their workplace culture looks like in practice.

From October, employers will be expected to demonstrate that they've taken all reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment before it happens.

But how well do you really know what's happening within your workplace?

🔎 That's where our Culture Scan can help.

The Culture Scan provides an independent assessment of your workplace culture, bringing together employee insight and other sources of evidence to help identify strengths, potential risks and areas for improvement.

You'll receive practical recommendations and a clear, prioritised action plan, as well as documented evidence of the proactive measures your organisation is taking to create a safer workplace.

One of the biggest proposed changes in the Employment Rights Act 2025 is the reduction in the qualifying period for unfair dismissal rights from two years to six months' service.

When the law is introduced on 1st January 2027, employers will have less time to assess whether a new employee is the right fit for the role. ⏳️

That makes having the right HR documentation and processes in place even more essential.

You should start to think about:
"Do our employment contracts reflect current best practice?"
"Are our probation process clearly documented?"
"Do managers know how and when to review performance?"
"Are concerns recorded consistently?"
"Are our policies and procedures up to date?"

Preparing now gives your managers the confidence to make fair, consistent decisions and ensures your employees understand what's expected from day one.

That's exactly what our HR Assure documentation packages are designed to support. From employment contracts and policies to employee handbooks, at Petaurum HR we'll help you get ready for whatever changes are ahead.

Almost 10 years ago, an idea created by our HR Adviser Hayley Crawford KPM became the beginning of something much bigger.

Recently, Hayley appeared on BBC One's The One Show to share the story behind Ask for Angela and the woman whose name has since become recognised around the world. 🌍️

The initiative was named in memory of Angela Phillips, who was tragically killed by her husband.

During the feature, viewers also heard from Angela's daughter, Hollie, who first came across Ask for Angela years later while working in pubs and bars herself. After noticing the posters, she looked into the campaign and discovered that the Angela behind the name was her own mum. 👩‍👧

After years of speaking online, Hayley and Hollie have now finally been able to meet in person. Together, they're helping ensure that the campaign's 10th anniversary posters truly represent Hollie's mum, the woman behind the name.

We're incredibly proud to see Hayley sharing such an important story with a national audience and to see Angela's name continuing to help people feel safer, almost a decade after the initiative began. 🧡

Running a business means wearing a lot of hats, such as sales, marketing, finance, operations, and HR too.

That often means spending evenings researching employment law, putting off difficult conversations because you're unsure of the right process, or hoping the policies you downloaded years ago are still compliant.

A full-time HR Manager can cost £40K+ a year before employer National Insurance, pension contributions, recruitment costs and training are even considered. 💰️

For many SMEs, that's not realistic.

The challenge is that employment law doesn't become any less complicated because your business is smaller.

You still need compliant contracts, up-to-date policies, and support with disciplinaries, grievances, sickness absence, recruitment, performance management and employee relations.

But you don't necessarily need someone sitting in your office five days a week.

That's where outsourced HR comes in.

At Petaurum HR, we provide practical, straightforward HR support whenever you need it, giving you experienced advice without the cost of employing someone full-time.

If you'd like to support Adam's fundraising and help St Barnabas continue the incredible work they do across Lincolnshire, all donations, big or small, are hugely appreciated.
