🚨 8 Active Healthcare Compliance Deadlines

Eight active deadlines — two in force today. Missing any carries legal and financial penalties.

🚨 DOUBLE CRISIS — APRIL 7 — 0 DAYS7 DAYS

NHS Strike + FWA Launch — Same Day

NHS doctors strike April 7–13. The Fair Work Agency also formally launches April 7 — with walk-in powers, no notice required, and 200% NMW penalty. Care homes face compliance checks during the highest-pressure week of the year. Two crises colliding: you need skeleton staffing plans AND a clean payroll record, simultaneously.

⚡ FWA WALK-IN POWERS — APRIL 7 — 0 DAYSENFORCEMENT LIVE

Fair Work Agency: Walk-In Enforcement Powers From April 7

The Fair Work Agency replaces HMRC as the enforcement body for NMW, SSP, and holiday pay from April 7. Unlike HMRC, FWA inspectors can visit care homes and domiciliary agencies without prior notice. Penalties: 200% of underpaid arrears plus criminal prosecution for deliberate non-compliance. Healthcare and social care are the primary enforcement targets due to complex pay structures (sleep-in, on-call, zero-hours).
