Major sporting events don’t stop at the final whistle - and neither do their workplace impacts.
With the FIFA World Cup 2026 taking place across multiple time zones, many UK employers will need to manage late finishes, short-notice leave requests, sickness absence and potential conduct issues. Without clear expectations and a consistent approach, these challenges can quickly affect morale, productivity and fairness at work.
That’s why our Partner at Citation have created a FREE World Cup 2026 HR & Health & Safety checklist - designed to help employers plan ahead and avoid common pitfalls.

Inside, you’ll find practical guidance on:
Managing annual leave and last‑minute requests
Dealing with sickness absence and “morning after” issues
Setting clear expectations around alcohol and behaviour
Keeping teams engaged and avoiding resentment
Health & Safety risks, including lone working and workplace aggression
