This webinar was hosted by the Greater Manchester Good Employment Charter in collaboration with Acas, helping to provide a clear and practical overview of family-friendly workplace legislation, with a particular focus on updates under the Employment Rights Act 2025.
Designed to support organisations navigating these changes, the session offers accessible insight into family-friendly policies and how they can be implemented effectively in the workplace.
Led by Karen Lester (Trainer) at Acas, the webinar guides attendees through recent legislative updates, including changes to paternity leave, bereaved partner’s paternity leave and unpaid parental leave.
Drawing on their expertise, ACAS shares practical, experience-led perspectives to help organisations better understand their responsibilities while highlighting how strong family-friendly practices can support employees with caring responsibilities.
