Speaking in the House of Lords on 19 May 2025

Debate

Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

The Government believe greater consideration is needed to assess the impact of any expansion of this already broad definition. Ultimately, whistleblowing protections sit in employment law, and we would need to consider any impacts to businesses and others if the definition of worker was to be expanded to include people not in an employment relationship.
