It is bizarre but not surprising that the current government and their mates are trying their best to change as much of the positive stuff promoted by the last administration on Employment Law as they can. They want to ensure that employers get the upper hand and wish to reduce working people to obedient servants.
The first significant change came in with the increase by another year on qualifying periods before an employee can take a claim for unfair dismissal to tribunal. In addition people will now have to pay up front before they submit a case.
The attack continues on facility time with the taxpayers alliance (we are all bloody tax payers by the way!) working out the cost of having facility time. What these silly little Tories should be doing is working out the cost of not having facility time. The amount of Industrial Relations disputes would double and productivity will fall. They should be made to take an a 'accountancy made simple' course to learn the facts of industrial life!
