The future of holiday pay enforcement: is your business ready?
In this episode of Employment Talk, our hosts examine the government's plans to introduce state enforcement of holiday pay and what this could mean for employers.
With the Fair Work Agency expected to gain powers to investigate holiday pay compliance, recover underpayments and impose financial penalties, holiday pay disputes may no longer depend solely on individual workers bringing tribunal claims. The proposals mark a significant shift in how holiday pay rights are enforced and increase the importance of getting calculations right.
Listen to the podcast for a practical overview of the proposed changes, the risks employers should be aware of, and the steps you can take now to review holiday pay arrangements before the new enforcement regime comes into force.

Enhanced dismissal protections for parents and carers
In this episode of Employment Talk, our hosts explore the latest developments under the Employment Rights Act 2025 affecting working parents and carers, and what they could mean for employers in practice.

Listen to the podcast for a practical overview of what’s changing, the key risks employers should be aware of, and how you can start preparing now ahead of reforms expected from 2027.
