HR software designed for UK employment compliance
The Employment Rights Act 2025 received Royal Assent in December 2025. Changes are rolling out through 2026 and 2027 — UK employers need HR software that keeps pace.
Flexible working — day one
ERA 2025 makes flexible working a day-one right. Employees can request from their first day. RosterElf's policy editor lets you create and distribute an updated flexible working policy aligned to the new process.
Guaranteed hours from 2026
Zero-hours and variable-hours workers gain a right to a guaranteed-hours contract after 12 qualifying weeks. HR software needs to track qualifying periods and document offers. RosterElf supports this via digital contracts.
6-year holiday records from April 2026
ERA 2025 introduces a new requirement: holiday records must be retained for 6 years from April 2026. RosterElf automatically stores all holiday requests, approvals, and entitlement records in compliance with this new rule.
Employee onboarding with built-in UK compliance
Paperless onboarding that covers every UK legal requirement
New hires complete everything online before their first shift — personal details, Right to Work verification (mandatory, £60k civil penalty for non-compliance), DBS check tracking by role type, bank account, NI number, and emergency contacts. ERA 2025 written statement of particulars issued from day one.
Digital employment contracts compliant with UK law
ERA-compliant contracts — signed and stored in minutes
Create ERA 1996-compliant written statements of particulars using RosterElf's Full-Time, Casual, and Independent Contractor starting points — or paste in your own contract text. Add guaranteed-hours clauses to reflect ERA 2025 entitlements as they come into effect. Send for electronic signature (valid under the Electronic Communications Act 2000) and store securely under UK GDPR.
HR policy management for UK employment law
Acas Code-aligned policies with timestamped acknowledgements
Distribute UK-specific policies and collect electronic acknowledgements. Failure to follow the Acas Code of Practice can increase employment tribunal awards by 25%. Timestamped acknowledgement records demonstrate procedural compliance. Use the policy editor to create and distribute your Worker Protection Act 2023 anti-harassment policy and collect formal acknowledgements.
Track UK licences — DBS, CSCS, SIA, personal licence
Every UK sector licence tracked with expiry date visibility
Track Personal Licences (Licensing Act 2003 — required for alcohol sales), DBS checks (Basic, Standard, Enhanced), CSCS cards (construction), SIA badges (security industry), and food hygiene certificates. Managers get visibility of upcoming lapses, helping ensure only qualified staff are scheduled for regulated roles.
Holiday management for UK working time regulations
Manage UK holiday entitlement and bank holidays with ease
Employees request holiday from their phone, managers approve with one tap. RosterElf tracks the UK statutory 5.6 weeks (28 days) entitlement under the Working Time Regulations 1998, pro-rata calculations for part-time staff, bank holiday handling, and carryover rules. Holiday records stored for 6 years from April 2026 (ERA 2025 requirement).
