Employment Rights Act flexible working changes coming into force
Friday 1st January, 2027
The Employment Rights Act 2025 tightens flexible‑working rules, forcing employers to follow a clearer process, consult before refusing requests and provide reasons for refusals, with those provisions coming into force in 2027 in the UK. This gives Lego’s PR team a chance to comment on how the company supports flexible working and employee wellbeing in the UK and other markets, reinforcing Lego’s family‑friendly, creative workplace image as employers prepare for the new legal requirements.
Why have we flagged this?
This is a strong fit: Lego can proactively showcase family‑friendly policies, case studies of flexible working supporting creativity and retention, and reactively position spokespeople on compliance and wellbeing ahead of the 2027 changes in the UK.
