The Employment Rights Bill: a better life at work

What is it? How will it change members’ working lives? How did we get here? And what happens next? An introduction to the ERB

A still image from the film, showing people walking through a train station, sped up. It reads: "The Employment Rights Bill will transform life at work.

The Employment Rights Bill (ERB) is one of the flagship initiatives of the Labour government – one that will bring a host of positive changes to workplace rights.

UNISON has been at the heart of this change, from the very beginning.

Over the coming months, we will be keeping members and activists up to date with the passage of the bill through Parliament, while  introducing its key elements – from strengthening family friendly rights, to improvements in facility time for reps, to curbs on fire and rehire and exploitative zero-hours contracts.

In the meantime, this film sums up the state of play for this game-changing bill. Please share with everyone you know.
