Key provisions of the Employment Rights Bill, designed to bolster workplace protections, will not be implemented until 2027, creating a two-year delay for workers anticipating these new rights. The delay impacts several measures within the bill, leaving employees waiting for enhanced job security, flexible working arrangements, and improved protection against unfair dismissal. While the bill's passage was hailed as a victory for workers' rights, the extended timeline has drawn criticism from unions and labor advocates, who argue that the delay undermines the urgency of addressing workplace inequalities and precarious employment conditions. They are urging the government to expedite the implementation process.
