Advising the Board: Diversity & Inclusion
What do boards need to know about D&I regulation? What are the risks to their business? How should they lead on this issue? These questions and more are answered in our Advising the Board report.
The new body will have a remit to protect workers through regulation and enforcement in areas such as national minimum wage, labour exploitation and modern slavery, holiday pay for vulnerable workers, statutory sick pay, agency workers and umbrella companies. If it proceeds, this could potentially be one of the most significant employment measures on the horizon, with the new body intervening on behalf of employees and workers in some circumstances where they would otherwise have had to take their own action in the employment tribunal. The indications are that the new body will have a range of enforcement powers available to it; regardless of the severity of these, there will also be reputational issues for employers where action is taken.
