Question to the Department for Business and Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, with reference to the Written Statement of 10 May 2023, HCWS764 on Regulatory Reform Update, who she plans to consult on proposed changes to employment law.
This question was answered on 16th May 2023
The Government has launched a consultation on three areas of retained EU employment law to ensure that they are tailored to the needs of the UK economy while ensuring that workers’ rights continue to be protected. The consultation is available on GOV.UK, and will run until 7 July 2023. The three areas we are consulting on are:
- Record keeping requirements under the Working Time Regulations;
- Simplifying annual leave and holiday pay calculations in the Working Time Regulations; and
- Consultation requirements under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment), or ‘TUPE’, Regulations.
