Moderate riskWhy now
Three waves of changes. The first is already live.
ERA 2025 does not land all at once. Each wave brings new obligations and new enforcement risk.
April 2026 — Day-one rights
SSP from day one. Day-one paternity leave. Doubled redundancy penalties. Fair Work Agency operational with on-site inspection powers and retrospective reach to December 2025.
October 2026 — Zero-hours reforms
Guaranteed Hours Offer rules. Third-party harassment protections. Fire and rehire restrictions. Businesses must have hour-tracking systems in place before this hits.
January 2027 — Unfair dismissal
Qualifying period drops from 2 years to 6 months. Any employee hired from July 2026 onwards is affected. Probation processes need updating now, before you start hiring.
