Employment Law Webinar | New Government Priorities Update

Employment Law Webinar | New Government Priorities Update

Labour’s proposed Employment Rights Bill has been described as the biggest shake-up of employment law in a generation. In this webinar, Employment Law Partner Chris Phillips looks at Labour’s plans to ‘make work pay’, what we can expect the Employment Rights Bill to cover and an overview of other proposed areas for reform which will impact employers.

This webinar covered:
  • Make protection from unfair dismissal a day one right for all workers
  • Ban 'exploitative' zero-hour contracts and 'fire and rehire' practices
  • Make family leave and sick pay day one rights for all workers
  • Repeal Minimum Service Levels legislation and modernise the law on trade unions
  • Introduce a right to equal pay for ethnic minorities and disabled people
