It’s official, 4 July 2024 is the date for the General Election!

Access our document below “The Labour Party plan for employment law and HR” based upon their Green Paper entitled “A new deal for working people”, recently rebranded as the “Plan to Make Work Pay”.
Please note that the Plan to Make Work Pay has provided additional details, for example, the three-month limitation period for Tribunal claims will be extended to 6 months, and the removal of compensation caps for unfair dismissal claims has been removed (they have not said what the new cap will be).
