At this popular annual conference, leading lawyers, academics and trade unionists will discuss how employment law has developed over the year so far, how it can be expected to change in the future, and how workers can best be protected.
It has been a significant year for employment law, with insecure workers’ rights thrust to the political forefront, as reports of poor working conditions abound.
In terms of primary legislation, the government has announced employment law reforms in the form of its Good Work Plan – a programme of proposals published in response to last year’s Taylor Review. If the Taylor Review was largely criticised for tinkering around the edges without committing to robust reforms, the Good Work Plan holds back even further. Its proposals focus on raising workers’ awareness of their existing rights, but neglects to provide new ones outside of small tweaks such as a right to a payslip and written terms and conditions.
Elsewhere, there remains great uncertainty over how the UK’s exit from the EU will affect UK employment law. While some fear opportunistic cuts to workers’ rights post-Brexit; others point to the new opportunity to strengthen workers’ protections by progressing employment law outside of the restraints applied by EU law.
As well as addressing the potential impact of these events, our experts will investigate the anticipated effects of automation on workers and their rights and developments in whistleblowing law, as well as updating delegates on advances in industrial relations, including the landmark BFAWU strikes by casual workers at McDonalds and the USS pensions dispute fought by the UCU.
In case law, the conference will report on the impact of and clarifications to the Trade Union Act 2016 and unlawful inducements as well as informing delegates more widely of significant developments that have been made through the courts.
