Tribunal claims are one of the biggest risks facing UK employers and with the Employment Rights Bill (ERB) and the creation of the new Fair Work Agency (FWA) set to overhaul enforcement, the stakes are rising fast.

In 2024/25, claims jumped by 13%, backlogs hit nearly half a million cases, and awards for discrimination reached almost £1 million. The FWA will bring stronger enforcement powers, more inspections, and greater scrutiny of employer practices making watertight compliance more important than ever.
