Employment law changes in 2024: What you need to know

We are entering into a period of seismic employment law change proposals which will fundamentally change the ways of work in the UK. The new Government has pledged a raft of changes that employers need to be aware of in order to be able to effectively contribute to the consultation with the Government and also to plan the impact on their organisations. Watch Monica Atwal and Lucy Densham Brown for a quick round-up of all the HR related changes that have already taken effect in 2024 and a summary of the significant changes that are still expected.

Topics include:

  • Labour’s proposed changes including:
    • Trade union rights
    • Day one rights
    • Worker status
    • Zero hour contracts
  • Flexible working requests
  • Carers leave
  • Paternity leave
  • Enhanced maternity redundancy protection
  • AI in the workplace

Helping HR keep up to date, and food for thought on organisations setting their agendas.
