Debate

Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

With regard to the right of access, a number of new Government amendments clarify the process relating to access, including the right to communicate with workers, including digital communication. But I remain concerned that the process creates a complicated framework that risks employers slowing the process, rather than providing for effective union access, and that the proposed model of financial penalties does not provide any remedy for the union.
