Prior to the general election in July 2024, Labour issued its ‘Make Work Pay’ plan in which it detailed an ambitious and wide-ranging set of employment law reforms which it planned to introduce if it came to power. With an election win under its belt, the new government has set this plan in motion, issuing the Employment Rights Bill within 100 days of coming to power.
To help employers navigate the road ahead, we have put together a user-friendly handbook where we look at each of the key, proposed reforms and consider what they mean for employers. We will be updating the handbook regularly over the coming months and years as the reforms begin to take effect.
Our handbook at a glance
In this handbook, you will find information, in an easy-to-read format, about each of the key proposed reforms, including the current legal position, details of the proposed changes and our commentary on the impact for employers.
We hope our handbook will help you understand how your organisation can adapt to the new legal landscape.

If you would like to discuss any of the proposed reforms contained in the Employment Rights Bill or other anticipated changes, contact Luke Bowery, or your usual Burges Salmon representative from our wider Employment team.
