Right, Compliant and Provable

The Employment Rights Act 2025 (ERA 25) doesn't just ask employers to comply with employment law — it asks them to prove it. Under the Act's new record-keeping duty, employers must keep adequate, accurate records evidencing compliance with entitlements under the Working Time Regulations, have policies in place and visible to staff, retain proof that those policies were distributed, and produce a complete audit trail for every transaction an employee or employer completes. Failure to keep adequate records is now a criminal offence, enforceable by the Fair Work Agency, with retrospective powers.

WfMHub's features, benefits and services are built around this requirement. Every function is designed to be accessible, auditable and reportable on demand — so when the Fair Work Agency, an employment tribunal, or your own internal audit asks for evidence, you have it.

Our single source of truth is structured around each employee's own data set, giving you secure, unique storage of every record, with full version control and update history. Statutory records must be retained for six years, and WfMHub lets you retrieve and report on that data instantly, whenever it's needed.

Beyond today's requirements under ERA 25, Working Time Regulations and related legislation, WfMHub has been built to stay ahead of change. The system is configurable, automated and secure — reducing the risk of non-compliance across every strand of employment legislation, while giving employees full visibility of their own data at all times.

And behind the platform, our team of experts is are on hand as standard, to support and guide you through whatever compliance challenge comes next.
