Employment Rights BillContribution
I do not agree with Opposition Members who protest that our change would, overnight, put a stop to hiring. The Government have been clear that employers will be able to pursue a lighter-touch dismissal process within a probationary period, and have rightly committed to consulting closely with employers on the implementation of that.
