Nearly half of HR professionals unable to keep up with changing legislation

Nearly half (41%) of HR professionals are struggling to keep abreast with ever-changing legislation, according to research from identity data intelligence specialists GBG.

The changes to UK law, such as those made to the Right To Work in the Immigration Act and Modern Day Slavery Act, are met with anxiety by 34% of those surveyed. Only 26% feel prepared and just four per cent feel optimistic that the changes will be advantageous for their organisation.
