First, we\u2019ll touch on minimum wage changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding the National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage, you may know that entitlement to each is quite different. To be entitled to the National Minimum Wage, individuals must be around the school-leaving age, typically around their 16th birthday, though the exact date differs slightly depending on whether your employee lives in England, Wales, Scotland, or Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be entitled to the National Living Wage, employees must be at least 21 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those 21 and over, the current rate is \u00a314.40, which will rise to \u00a312.21 on 1st April. For those aged 18-20, the rate will increase from \u00a38.60 per hour to \u00a310 per hour. For employees under 18 or apprentices, the rate will rise from \u00a36.40 to \u00a37.55 per hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have employees or workers in your business who are paid exactly the current national minimum wage, ensure you make the relevant changes to their hourly rate starting 1st April. You can notify them of this change by simply sending a letter to amend the terms of their employment. No one will complain about a salary increase, but it\u2019s always good practice to keep employees informed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Agenda Item 2: National Insurance Contributions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>Next, let\u2019s discuss changes to National Insurance contributions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From 6th April this year, the employer\u2019s secondary class one National Insurance contributions rate will increase from 13.8% to 15%. Additionally, the secondary threshold will be reduced. Currently, the earnings above which your company becomes liable to pay secondary class one National Insurance contributions are \u00a39,100 per year. From 6th April 2025 until 5th April 2028, the threshold will drop to \u00a35,000 annually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After April 2028, this threshold will continue to rise in line with the Consumer Prices Index (CPI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This change will affect around 1.2 million employers, with 940,000 employers seeing an increase in their National Insurance contributions liability. On average, the cost per employee will rise by around \u00a3900 per year. However, this change will not affect apprentices or employees under the age of 21.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Agenda Item 3: Neonatal Care Leave and Pay<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>Moving on to neonatal care:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Neonatal care refers to special care given to babies who are sick or born prematurely. The government has introduced legislation for Neonatal Care Leave and Pay, which, subject to parliamentary approval, will take effect from 6th April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This new entitlement applies to parents of babies who are admitted to neonatal care within the first 28 days of their life or have a continuous stay in hospital for 7 full days or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parents will be entitled to up to 12 weeks of leave, in addition to any other leave such as maternity or paternity leave. Statutory neonatal care pay will also be available for those who meet continuity of service and minimum earnings requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend that employers start putting in place a Neonatal Care Leave and Pay policy and ensure employees are aware of these upcoming changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Agenda Item 4: The Employment Rights Bill<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>Next, we\u2019ll touch on the Employment Rights Bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a comprehensive bill, which is set to introduce significant changes to employment rights, including new protections for employees. While the bill hasn\u2019t been passed yet, we\u2019re discussing the proposed changes so you can prepare for its potential impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key proposals include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) will become payable from day one of sickness absence, without a lower earnings limit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zero-hour workers will be entitled to guaranteed hours based on their work patterns over a reference period.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There will be rights to compensation for short-notice shift cancellations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bill will make unfair dismissal protection a day-one right, meaning employees will be protected from unfair dismissal from the start of their employment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These changes will likely come into effect late in 2025 or early in 2026, and we will keep you updated on any developments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s move on to our recommendations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the changes that are set to come into effect in April, such as Neonatal Care Leave and Pay, we recommend that you update your staff handbook and internal policies now to prepare for these changes. It\u2019s also a good time to involve your employees and keep them informed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For other changes, such as those under the Employment Rights Bill, you can wait until the bill becomes law before making any updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>That concludes the main part of our webinar. We also have a publication available on the key UK employment law changes in 2025, which you may find useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, I\u2019d like to mention an upcoming event on buying a tech or online business \u2013 what you should know. This will take place on Tuesday, 18th February at 11 am. You can register via our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Q&amp;A Section<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>Now, I\u2019ll move on to answering your questions. The first question is: Should we update our policy now to reflect the proposed changes under the bill?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned earlier, you can wait until the bill becomes law to make those changes. However, for the changes coming into effect from April, such as Neonatal Care Leave, it\u2019s a good idea to start updating your staff policies and creating the new policies now. Please do seek legal advice to ensure your policies reflect both the statutory position and your business intentions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>The second question is: What is the best practice from an HR perspective in dealing with these changes?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best practice is usually to update the policy or create new policies where necessary. You can use that opportunity to review your entire handbook and policies overall. We recommend looking at your policies at least once a year to ensure they align with changes in the law and your business intentions. You should also notify your employees once changes are made to the policies by either sharing them or letting them know where to find them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>The third question is on proposed changes to probationary periods, which we touched on earlier. As mentioned, the current position regarding probationary periods is that it\u2019s a commercial decision for businesses to decide the duration and whether to include a probationary period in the employee\u2019s contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, for the proposed changes, we are yet to see how long the statutory probationary period will be, and we\u2019ll need to wait for further clarification from the government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>The next question is: Is this webinar recorded?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, it is recorded, and we will send the recording to you via email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>Thank you all for your questions. That\u2019s all the time we have for today. If I didn\u2019t have a chance to answer your question, please submit your details in the survey at the end, and I\u2019ll be able to answer your question in more detail. Our team is also available to assist with your questions and provide additional support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comfort<\/strong>:<br>Before we wrap up, I just want to mention again that, while this is a free webinar, we do value your feedback. Please take just a few seconds to answer the survey at the end \u2013 it shouldn\u2019t take more than 30 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On behalf of myself and the team, thank you so much for joining us today.
