- Review holiday records, holiday calculation practices, record keeping, data retention, guaranteed hours, shift security, working patterns, scheduling and shift notice practices, identifying any compliance gaps and recommended actions.
- Support the business in preparing for changes to unfair dismissal rights, compensation risk, procedural standards and where necessary, related manager conversations.
- Review and update contracts, policies, handbooks and core People templates to ensure they remain legally compliant, clear and operationally practical.
- Support policy work arising from changes to ACAS guidance, including grievance and disciplinary standards, ensuring guidance is clear and consistently applied.
- Develop communications, guidance and policy updates linked to trade union reforms and wider employment law changes.
- Deliver activity to support strengthened third-party sexual harassment prevention arrangements, including risk assessments, training requirements, policies, reporting routes and evidence of reasonable steps.
- Review global whistleblowing arrangements, including governance, policy ownership, investigation standards, country-level procedural requirements and audit evidence.
- Assess global compliance training requirements by country, province or state and support the set-up of legally required training through DFL or other learning platforms.
- Review flexible working and right to disconnect requirements across relevant countries, ensuring policies, interpretation and guidance are sufficiently robust.
- Support EU Pay Transparency readiness, including review of pay practices, pay reporting, job adverts, recruitment processes, employee rights, equal pay principles and gender pay gap disclosure requirements.
- Maintain clear action tracking, ownership and audit evidence for compliance-related projects and agreed recommendations.
