Employment Law Review
The Employment Law Review – 2010 to 2015
BIS is leading a review of employment laws across Government to make it as easy as possible for businesses to take people on.
On this page, you will find links to the information on the scope of the Review, what has been achieved since the Review began in May 2010, and employment and workplace laws which will be considered over the life of Parliament. We will update this page from time to time as the Review progresses.
The Government set out in the Coalition Agreement that it will review employment and workplace laws, for employers and employees, to ensure they maximise flexibility for both parties while protecting fairness and providing the competitive environment required for enterprise to thrive.
Scope of the Employment Law Review
The Employment Law Review is looking at all BIS Employment Laws. In addition, all employment laws which are the policy responsibility of other government departments are within the scope of the Review.
