It might not have escaped your notice that employment law is changing, AI is moving quickly into everyday working life, and expectations around leadership, culture, people management and organisational responsibility are shifting too.

It can be a lot to keep up with.

But if you are a leader, policymaker, senior decision-makers or responsible for managing people, the challenge is not simply keeping up with individual developments, you need to understand how these individual changes all connect, and what they mean for the decisions you are making now.

That is where The Workplace Summit 2026: The Future of the Workplace comes in.

📅 8 December 2026
🕤 9:30am–4:15pm
📍 IET Birmingham: Austin Court
🔗 Book your place: https://lnkd.in/e_hisdPG
⌛ Spaces are limited to 150 delegates, so act fast.

Hosted by us in Birmingham on 8 December, the Summit brings together specialists across employment law, leadership, technology, business and workplace strategy for a day focused on the issues shaping how your organisation will look in the years ahead.

The aim is simple... to help you think more clearly about what is changing, what those changes could mean for your organisation, and where you may need to act, adapt or prepare.

Speakers include Roy Magara, Shahrzad Seifi, Adèle Akers, Shehroze Junejo, Nick Day, Mark Baglow and Clinton Walker, alongside a civic address from Cllr Zaker Choudhry MBE, Lord Mayor of Birmingham.

For £120 inc. VAT, your delegate place includes:
• Keynotes and expert sessions
• Insight across law, leadership, technology and the workplace
• A delegate e-pack and resources
• Networking with other senior professionals and decision-makers
• Light breakfast and lunch

If part of your role is helping your organisation make sound decisions about people, policy, leadership or the future of work, The Workplace Summit 2026 is designed for you.

The question is not whether the workplace will change. It already is.

How ready is your organisation for what comes next? Come and find out

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗱: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗿𝗮 𝗟𝗮𝘄 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗕𝗶𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗵𝗮𝗺!

If you work with people, you will already know how quickly the workplace is changing.

New employment rights are coming into force. AI is changing the way organisations recruit, manage work, and plan for the skills they will need.

Employers are facing greater responsibilities around harassment, while managers are expected to handle conflict, performance, wellbeing and constant change without always having the training they need.

The Workplace Summit 2026 has been created to bring those conversations together. Whether you employ five people or 50,000, this one-day event will help you understand what is changing, what it means for your organisation, and what you can start doing now.

You will hear from specialists across employment law, workplace mediation, artificial intelligence, leadership, cybersecurity and organisational change.

Together, they will explore some of the biggest questions facing employers:
· How should organisations prepare for the next wave of employment law reform?
· Can workplace conflict be resolved before it becomes a lengthy grievance, investigation or Tribunal claim?
· What will the new third-party harassment duty require from employers?
· How will AI affect jobs, recruitment, skills and productivity?
· What will managers need to lead people well in 2030?
· How do organisations protect their people, data and operations as the workplace becomes increasingly digital?

The summit will open with an address from the Lord Mayor of Birmingham, Councillor Zaker Choudhry, before a full day of practical sessions designed to give you ideas, strategies, and tools you can take back into your workplace.

It is for employers of every size, alongside HR and people professionals, NHS and public-sector leaders, founders, trustees, managers, and anyone with responsibility for people, culture or organisational risk.

You will also meet other employers and leaders facing many of the same challenges. Those conversations and connections could prove every bit as valuable as the sessions themselves.

This is the reality explored in a powerful article by Magara Law's Shahrzad Seifi.

Too many women still find themselves:

👉 Judged on appearance rather than ability
👉 Subjected to "banter" that crosses the line
👉 Overlooked for opportunities
👉 Spoken over in meetings
👉 Made to feel uncomfortable raising concerns

And yet, when promotion opportunities arise, recognition often seems much harder to come by.

The statistics are difficult to ignore:

📊 19% of women reported experiencing workplace abuse in the last year.

📊 60% say they have experienced sexual harassment during their working lives.

📊 Many never report it because they fear not being believed or worry about the consequences.

Perhaps the most important message from this article is that workplace disputes rarely begin with one major incident.

They often begin with patterns.

A comment.

A joke.

A concern that isn't taken seriously.

A decision that is never fully explained.

Over time, those patterns can become grievances, discrimination claims and serious legal risk.

Whether you're an employee, manager, HR professional or employer, this is an important conversation.

It's about trust.

Trust that the advice you're receiving is right.

Trust that your situation is being taken seriously.

Trust that the people acting for you genuinely care about the outcome.

Whether you're an employee facing a workplace issue or an employer navigating a difficult people matter, those things matter far more than legal jargon or impressive promises.

At Magara Law, we've been incredibly grateful to receive significant recognition over the past year, including being named the UK's #1 employment law firm by ReviewSolicitors as of May 2026.

But what means the most to us is what sits behind that recognition.

The trust of our clients.

The reviews they leave.

The recommendations they make.

The fact they choose to tell others about their experience with our team.

Because employment law is ultimately about people.

People's jobs.

People's businesses.

People's futures.

And helping them through some of the most important decisions they will make at work.

If you need employment law advice and want a team that combines expertise with genuine care for the people behind every case, we'd be honoured to help.

Because when someone comes to us with an employment law issue, they're often carrying far more than a legal problem.

They're carrying uncertainty.

They're carrying stress.

They're carrying questions about their future.

That's why this review meant so much to us.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"I found my solicitors at Magara Law very helpful and understanding when going through my work case regarding redundancy. They are very knowledgeable and friendly and made me feel at ease when going through the process. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to use Magara Law."

Knowledge and expertise are expected.

But being understanding when someone is worried.

Being approachable when someone is overwhelmed.

Taking the time to explain things properly.

That's what people remember.

And that's what we strive to do every day.

If you're facing redundancy, a settlement agreement, unfair dismissal or any other workplace issue, we're here to provide clear advice, practical support and reassurance when you need it most.

Behind every employment law issue is a person.

Someone facing uncertainty.
Someone worried about their future.
Someone trying to protect their livelihood, their business or their reputation.

That's why values matter.

At Magara Law, everything we do is built around five core values:

⚖️ Justice
🤝 Mercy
🧭 Humility
👥 People
💬 Transparency

Whether we're helping with an unfair dismissal, settlement agreement, discrimination claim, grievance, tribunal case or employer HR issue, those values guide every conversation, every piece of advice and every decision we make.

Because employment law isn't just about knowing legislation.

It's about treating people properly when they're going through difficult situations.

In a world that can often feel transactional, we believe there is still real value in clear advice, honest communication, genuine care and doing the right thing.

If you're facing a workplace issue as an employee or employer, we'd be honoured to help.

That isn't a hypothetical.

It's the reality facing thousands of employees across the UK. Maybe you're affected.

A recent BBC report has highlighted the growing pressure on the employment tribunal system, with many people waiting extended periods for their cases to be heard - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp9pj2pk2j7o

Behind every tribunal statistic is a real person.

Someone who has lost their income.

Someone trying to find another job while carrying the weight of an unresolved dispute.

Someone questioning whether they were treated lawfully.

Someone waiting for answers.

The reality is that employment tribunal claims can be complex, stressful and time-consuming.

That's why understanding your position as early as possible is so important.

If you believe you have been unfairly dismissed, discriminated against, victimised or treated unlawfully at work, getting advice early can help you understand:

✔️ Whether you may have a claim
✔️ The strength of your position
✔️ The options available to you
✔️ Whether a resolution can be reached before matters escalate further

You do not have to navigate these issues alone.

At Magara Law, we support employees through unfair dismissal claims, discrimination matters, workplace disputes, settlement agreements and employment tribunal proceedings.

If you're facing a workplace issue and don't know where you stand, speak to our team.

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗱𝗶𝗱.

That might sound like a great defence in employment law terms.

But in 2026, it could be the beginning of a whole heap of legal problems.

AI is already being used to shortlist candidates, rank applications, monitor productivity, flag “low performance”, analyse workplace behaviour and support management decisions.

For many employers, it looks efficient.
For many employees and job applicants, it can feel invisible, unexplained and impossible to challenge.

This is exactly where the risk sits.

Because if AI is used to sift, score, reject, monitor or recommend, the legal responsibility does not simply sit with the software provider.

It sits with the employer using it.

In her latest article, Magara Law’s Esther Peacock looks at one of the biggest employment law questions facing UK workplaces right now:

𝗜𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗳𝗳?

This article breaks down what employers need to understand about:
✅ AI shortlisting and automated recruitment decisions.
✅ The difference between genuine human oversight and rubber-stamping.
✅ Employee monitoring, productivity tools and workplace surveillance.

This is essential reading for employers, HR teams, managers, recruiters, employees and job applicants who want to understand where AI now sits in UK employment law.

📖 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/e4i5KPWy

If your organisation is using AI in recruitment, monitoring, performance management, investigations or disciplinary processes, now is the time to review whether your systems, policies and decision-making processes are actually compliant.

If you are an employee or candidate who believes an AI-driven process has affected you unfairly, it is important to understand your position early.

Magara Law advises both employers and employees on complex workplace issues where employment law, data protection and discrimination risk meet.
