Employment Law after the election: what kind of laws do we want? LONDON
Wednesday 11 February 2015
A one-day conference
UNISON Center, LONDON
As we rapidly approach the next general election, Britain’s working population and, in particular, its 6.5 million trade unionists need to know how their economic wellbeing is going to improve under a new government. It has been said that the next general election will be won or lost on the issue of employment rights. The conference will be a key event in the run-up to the general election for trade unionists, academics, lawyers and anyone with an interest in workers’ rights and trade union freedoms. This is an opportunity to set out what we expect from an incoming government.
