Unions warn government not to water down workers’ rights bill

The leader of the British’s largest union warned that the government’s irrigation of employment rights will be a “big mistake” because the government has become a law in the next few weeks.

Unison Secretary General Christina McAnea said the government is no longer determined to fully implement the bill following the departure of Angela Rayner and the cabinet change. Other unions expressed their concerns.

Legislation will be a great shake of workers’ rights that will include the prohibition of “exploitative” zero -hour contracts against unfair dismissal.

Warnings, a senior workers’ deputy BBC’ye, the bill “ `” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ”

MP said: “ Many working colleagues, economics, with the ministers, as an olive branch of the application may be attractive to drag their feet. ”

At the Congress of Trade Union in Brighton, he expressed his concerns that the senior union figures would be watered after the departure of Angela Rayner, and the dismissal of Justin Madders as the Minister of Employment and the decision to move Jonathan Reynolds to the chef.

Union leaders are very worried. Angela Rayner is increasingly afraid that the government has lost a violent championship for workers’ rights.

Unison represents more than a million workers. Many are relatively low -paid jobs. Secretary General Christina McAnea is normally very loyal to the government:

“They are very important and very worrying,” he said to the BBC, “he said.

“The employment rights bill is absolutely determined to driving anymore does not send a very good message that does not do these work,” he said.

“There is no name that fills me with confidence that the party is still determined and that the government is still determined to take it.”

The proposed legislation said that the government was “an opportunity for a lifetime” for the government to “slide a little” in favor of people working.

McAnea said that other union leaders felt the same way, and the attempt “withdrawing the bill” will be a “big mistake” against the “anger” campaign.

“We will do everything we can to ensure that this is not irrigated. We are waiting for a clear time schedule, and if this does not happen, there will be some very unhappy union leaders, including me,” he said.

Tuclu also called the government to “stay on the course” while delivering the bill.

Secretary General Paul Novak told BBC: “I am sure that the government will fulfill its commitment to fully put into force this employment rights bill.”

Not the usual suspects expected to criticize the government, but the trade unions to the right of the union movement.

Mr. Novak said the bill will “give great support to the rights of millions of employees in this country, many of whom are insecure, low -paid employment.”

“My message to the government, to stay on the road, to deliver the employment rights bill and to deliver exactly,” he said.

He also pushed back the idea that the government could compromise for business in the legislation.

Novak, “I think this is the last thing the government should meet,” he said.

“It is good for everyone to have people in good paid, safe employment. It is good for workers, but good for good employers cut by cowboys and good for the UK economy”.

USDAW represents more than 300,000 workers working in supermarkets, factories and warehouses.

The Union is concerned that a change in the draft employment rights added by the Lords Assembly in July can be accepted by the government.

The change aims to change the bill from an employer that an employee must offer guaranteed hours to request a guaranteed time by an employee.

The Union is concerned that the rights of its members will weaken because it will no longer have the right to contract reflecting normal working hours.

The Federation of Small Businesses told BBC. The resignation of Angela Rayner And the reorganization of the government offers the opportunity to “solve problems” with employment rights invoice.

“In some of our last member survey, 92% of employers said they were worried about this legislation. We have never reached this level in a survey,” FSB Policy Director Craig Beaumont said. He said.

He continued: “They are overwhelmed by the future changes. There are no HR teams. All these different measures scare them and the chance to solve these problems.”

Beaumont said that the dismissal of Rayner’s resignation and the Minister of Employment Madders (two basic government supporters of the bill) may allow some compromise.
