UK employment laws are designed to protect employers and employees alike and provide guidelines to make sure the relationship between the two can proceed fairly and smoothly.
Legislation covers everything from workplace safety, wages and worker’s rights to holidays, discrimination, and dismissal. The Employment Rights Act 1996 is widely considered the most important piece of employment law.
There are regular updates in legislation as issues and modernisation in business occurs, which can make it a minefield to navigate at times. That’s why we employ the industry’s top experts to provide the latest advice and help our customers deal professionally and legally in a timely way.
