As the CMA shows a growing interest in UK labour markets, particularly employment practices it suspects are anticompetitive, employers are looking to their legal advisers to guide them through the complex regulatory regime and ensure their employment practices remain competition law compliant. Our team of highly experienced employment and competition lawyers advises a diverse range of employers across different sectors: we understand our clients’ day-to-day commercial reality and the challenges and opportunities of the evolving employment landscape that they face.
Given the complexity of the labour market, we thought it might be helpful to codify an overview of this area into a short guide for employers, helping you understand how best to stay competition law compliant and avoid CMA scrutiny. We have also included some practical steps to help you protect your business.
