What's keeping you up at night right now?

Not literally (I hope!)... although this UK heatwave probably isn't helping Sweat smile

But professionally, what's keeping you up at night right now?

Working in People teams often means balancing competing priorities, navigating uncertainty, and supporting others through complex challenges, all while trying to stay one step ahead. And as we've discussed before, HR practitioners can often find themselves on the receiving end of grievances simply for doing their job.

So, what's the one people-related issue, challenge, or question that's taking up the most head space for you at the moment?

Whether it's retention, change, employee relations, leadership capability, workforce planning, wellbeing, AI, or something else entirely, we'd love to hear what's on your mind.

Chances are others in the community are facing similar challenges and may have practical advice, fresh perspectives, or lessons learned that could help.

    1. Trying to get managers to change their ways of working regarding probation and fixed term contracts to ensure we don't run the risk of unfair dismissal claims come January.

    2.Equal pay claims - unpicking decades old pay and working practices in a heavily unionised environment to reduce the risk of equal pay claims

    3. Zero hours contracts - like Robey I am waiting to see how this will impact us in a few niche areas
