Get Ahead of FY26/27: Legal Training to Protect Your Business

April might feel far away — but the new financial year always comes around quickly.

For HR, Finance, and Procurement teams, that means now is the ideal time to review compliance processes, refresh knowledge, and make sure everyone understands their legal responsibilities around employment status and IR35.

As the UK’s only regulated law firm specialising in employment status, Brookson Legal provides expert-led legal training to help your teams stay compliant, confident, and ready for the year ahead.

Why Preparing Early Matters

When the new financial year arrives, it often brings contract renewals, budget reviews, and HMRC compliance checks. Yet many organisations wait until the last minute to refresh their legal understanding — leaving little time to identify gaps or address risks.

Without clear, up-to-date knowledge of employment status and IR35 obligations, businesses can face:

  • Costly misclassification errors
  • Reputational damage from non-compliance
  • Confusion across teams managing contractors and suppliers

By acting early, you can make sure your business enters FY26/27 on solid legal ground — with teams that know exactly what to do, and why.

Who Needs to Be Ready — and Why

Talent & HR Teams
You’re managing people and onboarding contractors. Understanding employment status law helps you make compliant hiring decisions from day one.

Finance Teams
You’re responsible for the numbers — and that includes compliance risk. Knowing how off-payroll rules apply protects your budgets and your business.

Procurement Teams
You’re managing suppliers and third-party contracts. A solid grasp of IR35 and employment law helps you spot risks early and keep engagements compliant.

When all these teams are aligned, compliance becomes proactive — not reactive.
