A general election is to be held in the UK on 4 July 2024. Although official election manifestos have not been released yet, last week the Labour Party published a policy paper, “A New Deal for Working People”, setting out proposals to significantly reform UK employment laws. Should it win the election, Labour has promised to introduce an employment bill within its first 100 days in office. This month’s alert summarises Labour’s plans for employment law and highlights other developments over the past month, including public consultations which shed light on the Conservative Party’s plans for employment and recent case law on protections for gender-critical beliefs, limits on claims by outsourced workers, volunteer status, and vicarious liability for discrimination.
