Following the outcome of the General Election we can expect significant changes in employment law over the coming months.
In ‘Labour’s Plan to Make Work Pay: Delivering a New Deal for Working People’ ("the Plan") there are 20 pages of employment law reforms which Labour confirmed would be introduced in their manifesto My plan for change – The Labour Party ("the Manifesto").
Although much of the detail is yet to be set out we can expect reform relatively quickly with Labour committing to hit the ground running and introduce legislation within 100 days of entering government.
Labour has also committed to full and comprehensive consultation prior to passing any legislation.
