Election Special 3 : Industrial relations & trade unions laws

In this final webinar in our series providing unique insights into the main political parties’ plans for employment laws, we look at proposed changes to industrial relations and trade union laws. Our employment law team is joined by our public policy experts whose years of experience, across political parties, government and Parliament enables our multi-disciplinary team to provide insight rich analysis to assist organisations in planning for the upcoming UK general election.

In this final of our three “election special” webinars our employment law experts will be joined by members of our Public Policy and Strategic Communications team – specialists in policy analysis and political advocacy. This session will focus on emerging party policy relating to:

• Minimum service level agreements
• Sectoral collective bargaining and fair pay agreements
• The tightening of or, alternatively, the repeal of the Trade Union Act 2016 in relation to requirements for industrial action
• Statutory trade union recognition
• The use of agency workers during industrial action
