About this event
As the Employment Rights Act 2025 enters its first phase of implementation, UK employers are facing one of the most significant changes to Statutory Sick Pay in decades.
What are the implications of employees receiving statutory sick pay (SSP) from the first day of absence, rather than after three days? And what will the removal of the lower earnings limit mean in practice?
This Personnel Today webinar, in association with global HR and payroll platform Remote, explores what the changes mean not just for compliance, but for operational stability, cost control, and employee trust.
Editor Rob Moss is joined by Vic Thatcher, senior manager for global payroll strategy and compliance at Remote, and her colleague Shay Ogunsanya, managing counsel, commercial and product, to examine how to navigate the first 12 months with confidence while using legislative change as a catalyst for building long-term organisational trust and more resilient payroll operations.
Register now to learn more about:
- The likely implications of day-one SSP
- The effect of removing the lower earnings limit, particularly for part-time staff
- The impact on occupational sick pay
- International differences in sick pay provision.
What additional steps are you planning for the changes to the SSP regime? Reserve your place now on this 60-minute webinar, which includes a presentation, panel discussion and Q&A
