The Employment Rights Act (ERA), introduced in December 2025 and being phased in across 2026 and 2027, represents a major shift in UK employment law. It strengthens workers’ rights, promotes transparency and accountability, and aims to improve job security. For the construction sector - long reliant on flexible labour such as agency staff, contractors, and zero-hours workers - these reforms present significant operational, legal, and cultural changes.
