Spotlight on The Employment Rights Bill

This all-member webinar will explore the Government’s new Employment Rights Bill and what proposals mean for social care providers.

The Employment Rights Bill sets out to fundamentally reset industrial relations and ‘rebalance’ the relationship between employers, workers and trade unions. The Bill builds on Labour’s ‘Make Work Pay’ agenda and sets out 28 measures including day one rights for employees around sick and parental leave, scrapping ‘exploitative’ zero hours contracts and establishing the framework for an Adult Social Care Negotiating Body and fair pay agreement.

While the proposals in the Bill are unlikely to come into effect until at least 2026, the Government are moving at pace to gather views and many of the proposals will require members to plan and take action next financial year in preparation.

We are delighted that Emma Burrows from Trowers & Hamlins has agreed to join us for this webinar, which will explore what the Bill means for members and the changes organisations need to prepare for, alongside an opportunity to inform VODG’s response to the first tranche of consultations on sick pay, zero hours contracts and industrial relations.
