The employment reforms may not become law for at least two years, as the government seeks a compromise between unions and businesses on measures to strengthen workers' rights without hindering economic growth. The Employment Rights Bill, introduced into parliament, includes 28 measures, many of which will be subject to extended consultation. At least 30 other pledges have no clear timetable for delivery. Major reforms include granting workers protection from unfair dismissal from the first day of their employment and ending the existing two-year qualifying period. This will be accompanied by a statutory probation period of up to nine months for new hires, during which staff can be dismissed under a 'lighter touch' process.

The push for a four-day workweek just got real. At Meraki Talent, we're always on the lookout for trends that can transform the workplace and enhance employee satisfaction. A significant development is on the horizon: a proposed law that could give workers the right to demand a four-day workweek! Imagine achieving the same productivity in just four days instead of five, thanks to compressed hours. This shift could redefine work-life balance, giving employees more time for family, hobbies, or just a well-deserved break. But do you think it was a good idea? Our recent poll shows strong public interest in this idea. Here’s how opinions stack up: ➡️71% believe a four-day week is a fantastic idea! ➡️10% disagree. ➡️3% are on the fence (we’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!). ➡️17% think it varies based on specific roles. Stay tuned for more updates from Meraki Talent, where we're committed to bringing you the latest insights on workplace trends. #FourDayWeek #WorkLifeBalance #EmployeeRights
