Holywell Park Conference Centre, Loughborough University Science and Enterprise Park, LE11 3GR
Join us for an informative and practical seminar exploring the effective management of probationary periods in light of the significant changes likely to be introduced by the Employment Rights Act 2025 on 1 January 2027.
As probationary periods become increasingly important for employers to manage comprehensively and appropriately, this session will provide practical guidance on implementing best practice and avoiding common pitfalls
Topics will include:
- Contract and policy wording
- Training managers to manage probation effectively
- Monitoring performance and providing constructive feedback during the probationary period
- Conducting formal probation review meetings
Using real-life scenarios, we’ll examine common mistakes employers make and compare them with best-practice approaches, providing practical takeaways you can implement within your organisation.
Whether you’re an HR professional, business owner, or manager with responsibility for people management, this seminar will equip you with the knowledge and confidence to manage probationary periods effectively and minimise legal risk.
