Balancing act | UK firms back Government's employee rights agenda but accept it could make day-to-day operations more costly

UK firms broadly support the Government’s employee rights agenda but accept that it will lead to increased people management cost and complexity.

This is according to new research gathered from over 1,000 UK business decision-makers which found that almost two thirds (62%) of those questioned either definitely or partially support the Government’s employee rights bill, twice the percentage (31%) of those against.
